As a fully integrated materials supplier, we have the engineering know-how and converting technologies to take your project from concept to a high quality foam solution. Rubberlite offers skiving to thickness, slitting to width, and pressure-sensitive adhesive laminations to meet or exceed your individual needs.
Skiving
Rubberlite’s skiving technologies sets the industry standard for splitting expanded rubber, plastics and internally produced polyurethane foams with unprecedented gauge control and tight tolerance capability. Utilizing Statistical Process Control methods with the most advanced converting machinery, our skilled operators convert a diverse line of open and closed-cell foams into accurately skived materials to your specification.
Buffing
As an extension to Rubberlite’s expertise for converting tight thickness-specification materials, our buffing process utilizes an industrial abrasive cylinder to produce a clean and accurate surface profile. When dimensional tolerances are critical for precision parts, this value-added service affords repeatable and reliable conformance to your specification.
PSA Lamination
Rubberlite’s multiple wide-format lamination processes apply liner-backed PSAs to our large selection of cellular materials in an array of widths and thicknesses. To ensure optimal adhesion and quality, a variety of laminating adhesive types and grades are selected from the leading suppliers of rubber and acrylic-based PSA products including: CCT, Adchem , Avery Dennison, and 3M.
Slitting
Rubberlite offers accurate slitting and stripping to width for a variety of materials and thicknesses. To accommodate longer lengths for automated fabrication or manufacturing lines, Rubberlite has the capability to strip materials on continuous reels with custom labeling and packaging services as well.
