Foam Expo - official trade show brochure

Reprinted excerpt from Foam Expo Show Preview Brochure.

Being held March 6-8 in Novi, MI, Foam Expo is a free-to-visit event. I invite you to meet colleagues from North America, Europe and Asia who share an interest in – and are leading the development and marketing of – the latest innovations in advanced and technical foam materials and products.

Foam Expo offers you direct contact with the engineers and executives who produce materials and products used in automotive, aerospace, construction, medical, packaging, and sports and leisure. You’ll see exhibitions of materials and products that set new standards across a wide range of applications. Our aim is to give the technical foams industry the stage it truly deserves. If you are involved in the purchasing, integration, manufacture or supply of materials, products or equipment, you can be certain that your suppliers, customers, competitors and peers will all be at the show!

The Durafoam OK Series is the proprietary technology of Monmouth Rubber & Plastics for its kinetically grafted blends.

Epichlorohydrin Sponge Rubber Now Available from Monmouth Rubber

Epichlorohydrin Sponge Rubber (EHC)

After extensive lab and production testing, we’re pleased to meet growing customer demand by offering epichlorohydrin sponge rubber in not just one, but all five ASTM 1056 hardnesses.

Epichlorohydrin Sponge Rubber is increasingly popular with auto makers, because of its resistance to biofuels (as well as to oil contact), along with its ability to perform well under continuous temperatures of 300 degrees F.

ECH sponge rubber also provides good resistance to weather, ozone, sunlight and oxidation.

  • Non-automotive applications include:
  • Oil field specialties
  • Diaphragms
  • Pump and valve parts
  • Vibration isolators
  • Paper mill and printing rolls
  • Power and conveyor belting

Companies no longer able to offer EHC

With so many other companies no longer able to offer epichlorohydrin sponge, Monmouth Rubber sought the opportunity to exceed customer expectations: We not only provide all five hardnesses of ECH but also offer customized bun sizing to help customers maximize their production operations.
