Thermocompressed foam mask
The heat deformation of polyethylene foams makes it possible to obtain any shape required. Heat-compressed PE foam can be used to manufacture and design parts for patients’ medical comfort. It is also essential for protecting amateur and top-level sportsmen and women. We make a specific mould from Plastazote, XVA or XPE cross-linked PE foam (also known as LD29 or LD45). From this custom mould, we then use thermocompression to manufacture all the mass-produced parts for a wide range of applications in many different fields.
Manufacture of PE foam masks for medicine, sport and leisure
Polyethylene (PE) can be used to manufacture foam protection for a variety of sports and leisure activities, such as paint-ball waistcoats or helmets for cycling, mountain biking, etc.
PE foam is flexible and light enough to take the shape of the body. What’s more, it’s strong enough to offer good protection. So it’s ideal for all high-risk, violent or contact sports. In addition, thermo-compressed foam can be used to manufacture safety equipment such as motorbike protection elements, safety helmet interiors, etc. Finally, we produce foam masks for the medical sector, with the possibility of making products that will provide maximum safety and comfort for patients.
We offer a whole series of polyurethane (PU) foam cuts in different shapes. This PU foam cutting for industry, foam cutting for protection, wedging, can be done by laser.
These foam cuts are made from drawings, vector files. Other than laser, these foam cuts can be made with specific and high-performance tools.
These parts are made of soft, hot-formed foam.
The feltization process used gives to the product a “soft” touch. It allows for a very precise finish, and the possibility of making your brand or logo stand out.
We can thus meet your most diverse technical needs such as insulation (sound and/or thermal), filtration, comfort parts (technical seats, helmet interiors, etc.) or any part requiring lightness or robustness. To do this, we use our various know-how, which are lamination, thermoforming, thermocompression, waterjet cutting, pressing, machining, etc.
PPI foams are suitable for air or liquid filtration.
Foam cutouts can be cut using a variety of processes: pressing, stamping, waterjet cutting or wire cutting, all without dust
Proud to be a sustainable leader in our field, we’ve been committed to the cause from our very beginnings. From launching our world-first 100% recyclable padded bag to developing
a group-wide waste-free cradle-to-cradle’ approach, sustainability is at the heart of every decision we make.
So how exactly do we do what we do, sustainably?
Because we’re 100% committed to what we call our ‘circular economy’ and ‘cradle-to-cradle’ products – which basically means that none of our waste ends up in the incinerator or landfill. In fact, we have no waste. Everything is reused. And we do this in two main ways.
