Compounding

Our compounding process ensures every rubber product meets precise performance requirements. We develop custom rubber compounds tailored to specific applications, including materials like EPDM, FKM, Natural Rubber, AEM (Vamac®) and NBR to achieve optimal durability, flexibility, and resistance to environmental challenges.

Extrusions

Harltex specialises in precision rubber extrusions, offering both hot feed and cold feed options to produce profiles for sealing, insulation, and structural applications. With capabilities including fish-tail profiles, large bore extrusions, and short-run production, we deliver solutions that meet the most demanding requirements.

Moulding

Our moulding processes – Transfer, Injection and Compression, – enable us to produce high-quality rubber components for a variety of industries. From simple seals to complex parts, we ensure precision and consistency across all applications.

Joining

Our joining techniques ensure seamless connections between rubber components or between rubber and other materials. Whether it’s rubber-to-rubber joining for continuous profiles or complex assemblies, our processes deliver durable and reliable solutions.

Rubber-to-Metal Bonding

Rubber-to-metal bonding combines the flexibility of rubber with the strength of metal for high-performance components. This process is ideal for vibration dampeners, seals, and industrial mounts, ensuring superior durability and functionality in demanding environments.
