Co-extrusion: combining multiple functions in a single profile

With co-extrusion we process two or more materials into a single profile. Typical applications combine a rigid PP or ABS carrier with a soft TPE sealing lip — in one operation, without adhesives or secondary assembly.

For visible parts we integrate coloured cap layers or UV-stable covers directly into the extrusion process. The result is durable surfaces that do not require painting.

Our engineering team guides you from material selection through tool design to series release — including verification tests for adhesion, ageing and mechanical load.
