Building and construction

Building and construction industry has always been upgraded with the latest technology and material trends. One such evolution in the material world is Santoprene TPE/TPV material. The parts made from Santoprene are garnering wide adoption because of the properties like durability, aesthetics, easy handling, recyclability, and cost-effective production. The TPE material is virtually used everywhere ranging from tools to foundations to roofing and in between because it is a material that can hold up and stand out.

Building With Thermoplastic Elastomers

TPEs are an economical choice for building and construction industries. The traditional materials such as pipes, plastics, and other components have a long life but if thermoplastic elastomer is used their lifespan can even further be extended. Its extreme temperature resistance, lack of corrosive properties, lightweight, and also the quality of outlasting the counterparts makes the Santoprene TPV/TPE an apt solution for the building and construction industry.

Other Uses for Thermoplastic Elastomers in Construction

The thermoplastic elastomers are largely used in making rubber tool grips on hammers, pliers, drills. Being a Santoprene TPE/TPV custom profile manufacturer , We use TPE material that is flexible enough to become a part of hoses as well as ducting used for air, fumes, vacuums, and suction. Also, they are used as extruded profiles found in airtight windows, seals, weather-stripping, and gaskets.

At SantopSeal, we manufacture all custom rubber seals and gaskets including custom gaskets made from Santoprene TPE/TPV that are widely used in construction industry.

Weather Seals and Gaskets

We do produce Custom TPE extruded rubber gaskets and seals to meet the weatherproofing requirements of the construction industry, which keeps things dry and protected. With the TPE material’s versatility and easy processability, Santoprene TPE Seals are a popular choice in the construction industry. The Santoprene TPE seals and gaskets have features such as resistance to temperature, weather changes, and UV rays. Its other specialties are co-extrusion, impact resistance, and flame retardance, which makes them an apt choice to build a variety of seal, flashing, gasket, and door sweep applications.

Tile Spacers

The Santoprene TPE-made tile spacers ensure that the construction gets a seamless look with the fineness of a well-installed and attractive tile arrangement. It is soft, flexible, and has minimal shrinkage in processing. This makes it an ideal choice as a tile spacer.

Household

At SantopSeal, we produce TPE/TPE gaskets that is used in washing machines, dryers, refrigerators, small appliances, and in-floor care. It has a great flex fatigue resistance and so is also used in seals, hoses, gaskets, knobs, dampeners, etc.

Electrical

Santoprene TPV tubes provide flexibility along with high-performance low-voltage insulation, jacketing, and electrical connectors. They are used in all kinds of high and low voltage applications. It does staining in extreme temperatures and has great durability, flexibility, and resistance to flex fatigue. Thus also used in wire and cable applications.
