BORFLEX® designs and manufactures elastomer parts for ground transportation applications
The group works with all types of vehicles: buses, coaches, trucks, automobiles, commercial vehicles, agricultural vehicles, defense vehicles, and other vehicles.
BORFLEX® sites also work with vehicle assembly lines, as well as for dealers and vehicle repair shops.
BORFLEX® designs and manufactures elastomer seals and tooling, and also supplies sealing products to military vehicle manufacturers.
Vehicle seal design
BORFLEX® specializes in the design and manufacture of custom seals for vehicles, combining state-of-the-art elastomer processing technologies.
BORFLEX® specializes in the extrusion and fabrication of seals that provide water, air, and noise sealing.
We handle the development of elastomer components from design through manufacturing in all sizes.
We manufacture vehicle seals using the best materials to provide you with optimal solutions. TheBORFLEX® Group focuses on
three key areas: quality, service, and innovation.
With many years of experience specializing in the manufacture of elastomer parts for the defense and arms industries, theBORFLEX® Group offers reliable and durable solutions:
- - elastomer blends offering outstanding performance even under extreme conditions (temperature, pressure, etc.),
- - compliance with standards,
- - guaranteed tightness (liquids, gases, noise, external contamination, etc.),
- - ballistic protection,
- - radiation protection.
BORFLEX® Group products are used in a wide variety of equipment, providing performance and efficiency. BORFLEX® prioritizes innovation in order to meet the challenges of the defense and armament industries.
DESIGN of custom elastomer and composite parts
In addition to our catalog products, our dedicated design departments create and develop innovative solutions. We can meet all the requirements of your project and offer you all the latest innovations on the market.
BORFLEX® designs and manufactures high-performance, certified custom elastomer and composite parts for a variety of industries. We assess all your needs, and our teams conduct material and feasibility studies on your behalf. We bring comprehensive expertise to your project and develop a complete set of manufacturing specifications. Our expertise in all elastomer and composite processes ensures you receive a comprehensive solution for small- or medium-volume production.
Rubber hose and cable bridge manufacture.
Crocodile®tubing and cable bridges areextremely sturdy and durable.
The bridges come with side tabs to prevent them from separating when placed together.
These foldable solid rubber bridges can be installed in seconds. The two sides are held together with a rustproof cable, so they remain resilient, even on uneven ground.
SEAL CO-EXTRUSION PROCESS
BORFLEX® manufactures extruded waterproof seals, airtight and noise-tight seals, from the design to the manufacture of parts of all sizes.
We also offer flame-retardant elastomers and halogen-free, self-extinguishing elastomers that comply with the most stringent standards for fire behavior and smoke toxicity.
BORFLEX® masters all the techniques involved in the manufacture of an extruded seal:
- - application of slip varnish or flocking,
- - removal of fabric,
- - anti-elongation wires,
- - bi-material seal,
- - use of semi-rigid or flexible PVC,
- - steel frame (metal insert),
- - sealing cord,
- - insertion of fabric or stiffening material,
- - Adhesive application,
- - use of cellular rubber,
We also offer expertise in seal extrusion and the shaping of hoses for fluid transport.
We have a wide range of standard extruded sealsfor many applications in many industries.
Sealing profiles for vehicles
TheBORFLEX® Group specializes in the manufacture of elastomer parts for the land transportation sector.
The BORFLEX® Group offers you its expertise in the field of sealing (air, water, noise), particularly in the manufacture of vehicle seals in small- and medium-volume production runs (starting at 5 vehicles per day):
- . premium vehicles,
- . spare parts,
- . etc.
We provide innovative solutions to ensure thefollowing essential functions:
- . thermal and acoustic sealing (water, air, noise),
- . amortization,
- . guidance,
- . appearance parts (exterior and interior).
We combine or usedifferent materialsindividually to produce multifunctional profiles:
- . elastomers: hard or soft or cellular compacts, flocked or varnished,
- . textile or steel reinforced flexible plastics, fabric finish, double-sided adhesive application,
- . PVC,
- . VSE,
- . polyurethane.
We operate and develop elastomeric solutions in small and medium-sized production runs.
We offer solutions for the assembly of profiles by :
- . clipping
- . collage
- . hot melt
- . moulding
- . etc...
To ensure the seals are watertight for complex 3-axis moving parts (windows, doors, etc.).
Finished parts, which can include several profiles that are themselves assembled, can be produced on a one-off basis or in series. Reproducibility is guaranteed by our process capability in accordance with automotive standards.
