Bayfit ® Tec:
Soft foams for tough
applications
Foam-in-place technology, where the seal is applied to the workpiece during the foaming process,
has grown significantly in importance over the last few years. It is increasingly replacing the use of
prefabricated gaskets made from materials such as PVC and rubber. The automotive industry and its
suppliers, as well as the electrical and electronics sectors, have been the main beneficiaries of the
advantages brought by Bayfit ® .
The main advantage over installing pre-molded gaskets lies in the major potential for rationalization.
Thanks to the foaming process, material consumption is lower than with solid alternative materials.
Additionally, production can take place on automated processing lines, ensuring a high level of productivity
and fitting accuracy.
The electrical and electronics sectors also appreciate the sound-absorbing properties of Bayfit ® foams.
They use the noise-reducing grades in electrical appliances thanks to their flame-retardant properties.
