Silicone Material

With expertise in silicone formulation and transformation, we have more than 500 predesigned formulations for your selections.

Similarly, our capability in developing new ones enable us to quickly produce silicone compounds with excellent seal properties such as hardness, compression set to suit your application

Silicone is a synthetic polymer, which is composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and silicon. This elastomer shows viscoelasticity – it has both viscous and elastic properties. Silicon comes from silica which is found in sand. Silicone materials are widely adopted in various applications.

At our plant, we transform silicone into seals using a High Temperature Vulcanize Rubber (HTV) curing process. During the process, we use platinum or peroxide as a catalyst to transform High Consistency Rubber (HCR), or Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR), and other sub-materials into high quality seals.

High performance and sustainable material

Our engineers possess extensive material knowledge, and we’ll work directly with you to design a custom silicone compound, and seals, that meets your exact specifications. Take a look at why silicone is the material of choice for high-performance seals.

Saint-Gobain aims to drive the environment by implementing sustainable practices.

For the last few years, we have been partnering with experts around the globe in silicone recycling to extract silicone oil to reuse in other industries.
