Foamotive XLPE Foam in Automotive Applications
XLPE foam gaskets and seals come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and play a growing role in many vehicle components due to their versatility and performance. Often hidden away from the driver and passengers, our foam parts provide insulation and keep away road and wind noise, contributing to the acoustic and thermal comfort in the car. Foamotive gaskets and seals also secure and protect components from moisture, dust and chemicals, and can fill space and regulate air flow through assemblies, reduce vibration, improve NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) performance, and even contribute to energy efficiency!
