Innovation means a more colorful workplace

Without foam, the revolution in affordable color printing wouldn't be possible. Our hydrophilic technology transports ink without clogging or pooling, so today's laser jets and inkjets can deliver perfect results every time. Making every day a little brighter.

PRINTERS: INNOVATION MEANS A MORE COLORFUL WORKPLACE

We live in a world of computers, electronics, e-mail and high tech telecommunication devices. How many of us use our phones to stay-in-touch each and every day? Our expansion into the field of electronic technologies began when consumers insisted that manufacturers make products that are faster, quicker and easier to use.

Our industry leading research & development team has created a new, unique line of ultra fine, high-density polyurethane foams to satisfy the needs of our customers in these electronic markets.

Uses for this new product line include roller materials designed for digital imaging equipment such as laser printers and copiers. Our novel, conductive formulations can be used for electrically charged roller applications such as toner adder rollers, charge rollers, developer and transfer rollers, for all ranges of printers and copiers used in home and industrial settings. The design flexibility, ease of fabrication, uniform cell structure and mechanical properties of our micro-cellular free rise polyurethane foams provide a cost effective alternative for your digital imaging material needs.

These materials are engineered at densities of 6.0-10.0 lb./ft³ and are designed to impart mechanical properties comparable to materials having much higher densities. At the same time, the materials have a very fine cell structure, with cell diameters on the order of 0.006-0.02 inch, substantially finer than traditional polyurethane foams of this kind. The combination of physical properties normally seen with solid elastomers, now in a porous material with ultra fine cell structure, provides new engineering and design possibilities. We can tailor the physical properties such as hardness, compression set and resistivity for your specific specifications.
