About Our Compression Molding Process
How it Works
Compression molding uses heat and pressure to shape raw silicone or rubber material within a mold. This method is effective for creating durable parts with complex designs and is suitable for both prototypes and production runs
What Can You Make?
Compression molding enables us to create a variety of custom parts like gaskets, seals, diaphragms, and dampening pads. This process is ideal for applications in medical, military, and industrial fields for rubber parts under various conditions and requirements.

Silicone Parts
Molding
Our compression molding process shapes high-quality parts by applying heat and pressure to custom molds, forming durable components from materials like rubber and silicone. This method is ideal for producing medium to large volumes of parts with consistent quality and detailed features.
FDA Grade
FDA-grade silicone is a non-toxic, temperature-resistant material used in food, medical, and other human-safe applications.
Electrically Conductive
Electrically conductive silicone combines silicone’s flexibility and durability with conductive particles, enabling current flow for various applications.
Flurosilicone
Fluorosilicone combines silicone’s properties with fluorine, enhancing chemical and solvent resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments.
ASTM, MIL-SPEC, BMS, USP CLASSVI
This type of silicones are formulated to meet rigorous industry and regulatory standards ensuring performance, safety, and biocompatibility for specialized applications
Popular Materials
Compression molding allows for a wide range of material options, each offering specific properties for various applications. Silicone, EPDM, neoprene, and fluorosilicone can be used to provide flexibility, heat resistance, and chemical durability. This material versatility makes compression molding ideal for applications like medical gaskets, military dampeners, and consumer product components. (Material specifications available upon request)
