Why Designers Choose PORON®
Urethane Foams For Handheld Applications

As
handheld and electronic devices become more compact and technologically
advanced, design engineers require thinner and softer materials to solve
gasketing, sealing, and cushioning challenges in tights spaces. PORON Urethane Foams offer the winning solutions for filling gaps,
providing seals, and protecting components from environmental hazards and
harmful vibrations.
Designers rely on PORON foams to resist
compression set, extreme temperatures and shock when used in gaskets and
seals that protect LCDs, cameras, batteries, microphones, speakers, and
other sensitive components. When
design flexibility is critical, PORON Urethanes fill the gap with the
widest selection of thin/soft options, thicknesses and densities –
including low-density offerings that adapt to variances in gap thicknesses
between components.
