Material Vendors

PLI works with a wide variety of material vendors like 3M, Armacell, Sealed Air, Rogers and more. Pak-Lite can modify and enhance these PSA adhesive and foam materials with heat, pressure, cutting, coating and other processes. We also combine materials to form composites with additional capabilities for special uses in all kinds of OEM products. Below is a short list of our key vendors and some of the materials they can supply for converting.

Open Cell Foams

Open cell foams feature a wide array of physical properties, making them well-suited to a broad range of applications:

Liquid absorption and/or wicking
Particulate filtering
Acoustical control
Thermal management
Cushioning

Closed Cell Foams

Closed cell foams are non-permeable to liquids or air. These foams can be molded, treated to create composites, laminated, and blended to achieve unique characteristics. Closed cell applications include:

Braces
Supports
Cushions
Gaskets
Seals
Barriers

Films, Foils, Laminates and Treatments

PLI has considerable expertise developing and applying laminates and materials that enhance product performance and longevity, such as:

Films
Foils
Laminates
Coatings
Adhesives
Screens

Special Treatments of Foams

Whatever foam characteristic you require, it's likely PLI can help you produce it through one of the many processes we use, including: heat compression, skiving, die cutting, kiss cutting, slicing, grinding, and molding. We also work with conductive foams and coat or laminate others with materials like Mylar®, fabrics and polyethylene.
