Interior air ducts
RoFoam delivers excellent twin-sheet thermoforming performance, providing the dimensional stability, stiffness and lightweight properties required for complex HVAC air duct systems.
Water shields
RoFoam delivers excellent single-sheet thermoforming performance, making it an ideal material for lightweight watershields with excellent moisture resistance and dimensional stability.
Seals & gaskets
RoFoam enables accurate die-cutting of lightweight sealing components with excellent compression recovery and resistance to moisture, chemicals and temperature variations.
Interior composites
RoFoam bonds easily with films, textiles, adhesives and other substrates, enabling multifunctional lightweight composite components with enhanced comfort, insulation and NVH performance.
Seat reinforcements
RoFoam provides lightweight cushioning, support and dimensional stability, making it well suited for durable seat reinforcement components that retain their shape over time.
Fender fillers
RoFoam’s lightweight, closed-cell structure provides excellent moisture resistance and cushioning, making it suitable for durable fender fillers that help reduce noise and vibration.
EV battery protection & insulation
RoFoam combines thermal insulation with lightweight cushioning and shock absorption, helping protect EV battery systems against temperature variations, vibration and impact.
Certified according to FMVSS 302
RoFoam is certified acccording to the FMVSS 302 (Flammability of Interior Materials) standard. This Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 302 is used to determine the burn resistance capabilities of materials used in the occupant compartments of motor vehicles.
A test sample is aligned horizontally and exposed to a small Bunsen burner flame at one edge. The flame is applied for 15 seconds and then pulled away from the sample. The rate of flame travel across the sample is measured between two points. The pass/fail criteria is based on the burn rate across the test sample, with a maximum burn rate of 102 mm per minute.
