Silicone in industry: what if Borflex SPCV opened up new possibilities for you?
· Strength, flexibility, transparency, resistance from −110 °C to +315 °C: LSR silicone has become a driver of innovation for technical parts. More than 35 years of expertise in Vorey-sur-Arzon.
Silicone has established itself as an essential material in modern industry. At Borflex SPCV, the processing of LSR (Liquid Silicone Rubber) has become a real driver of innovation: it makes it possible to design custom technical parts that meet the requirements of the pharmaceutical, food, medical, industrial and electronics sectors.
A material with exceptional properties
Flexible, strong, colourable, insulating: silicone is an industrial chameleon. It withstands extreme temperatures, UV and saline environments. LSR is also the only transparent elastomer, with remarkable visual purity and homogeneity, and it resists from −110 °C to +315 °C. It can be coloured on demand and is approved for contact with drinking water.
More than 35 years of LSR experience
We have mastered the processing of this material for more than 35 years, for precise, high-performance and durable products. Our processes comply with good manufacturing practices and the most rigorous pharmaceutical specifications: specific formulations, permanent quality control, ISO 9001 version 2015 certified site.
From large series to prototype
Our industrial tools ensure large-series production with high repeatability, short lead times and rigorous monitoring. Upstream, our 3D prototyping service quickly validates a concept, reduces development costs and optimises the design before industrialisation.
