DLR Elastomer Engineering

Experienced Manufacturer of Polymer Products

Since 1895 DLR has been combining expansive knowledge of materials, their properties, and processing techniques to develop bespoke mouldings and fabrications for many industry sectors. Our core services include moulding rubber, rubber sheeting and cast polyurethane products. We can deliver rubber sheeting with or without fabric inserts. We can also develop moulded parts with specific properties. Whilst non-black rubber goods present their challenges, here at DLR, we are equipped to overcome them. 

Experts in Polyurethane Products

Polyurethanes (PUs) are in a polymer class of their own. Polyether or polyester polyurethanes can be made depending on the choice of co-monomers used to produce them. PUs form a considerable part of the high-performance rubbers and plastics family. They combine the desired benefits of rigid materials with the elasticity of rubbers, bridging the gap between rubbers and plastics in the many industry sectors served by these versatile polymers.

Custom Rubber Moulding

At DLR Elastomer, we pride ourselves on offering a bespoke custom rubber moulding service, understanding application requirements, designing the parts, tooling & process to deliver the product to the clients’ exact and demanding performance needs. Our technical team is happy to advise on materials best suited for your application. Where necessary, we can modify the existing compound and/or develop new compounds keeping the service performance conditions of your product in mind. In addition, we monitor and apply current developments in polymer technology and we use this knowledge to develop even more advanced materials which will benefit our customers.

Bespoke Rubber Sheeting

DLR specialises in providing uncured sheeting in various forms to be fabricated and cured by the client. Most rubber sheeting is supplied in a cured or vulcanised form, making our rubber sheeting versatile and adaptable. Application-specific materials are chosen, calendared and supplied on a roll for subsequent fabrication by the client. In both cases, cured and uncured, woven textile may be inserted to produce the desired properties for parts such as diaphragms, stamped gaskets and conveyor belts, to name a few applications.
