Vulcanization

SCHIEMA’s expertise

Vulcanization is an essential part of rubber processing. Vulcanizing the rubber material gives it the desired strength and flexibility. An advantage of this is that it is more resistant to wear, large temperature differences, and chemical influences, for example. This not only increases the lifespan of the rubber parts but also makes them suitable for multiple applications. Furthermore, vulcanization makes it possible to create extremely strong bonds between different rubber parts or between rubber and other materials. Naturally, this also makes a rubber part applicable in multiple areas.

Vulcanization in various industries

In addition to our standard services, SCHIEMA also provides custom solutions. This enables us to respond to almost every sector. Vulcanization is widely used in various industries. In the transport sector, for example, it ensures wear-resistant and flexible seals and conveyor belts, while in construction, it is used for seals and damping materials that can withstand heavy loads and varying weather conditions. Vulcanization also offers advantages in mechanical engineering due to the improved properties of the material.
