Plastic is the basis of all Elkamet products. That is why we take a close look at the materials in order to understand them, improve them, and adapt them specifically for special applications. We do this both in our own research and development department and in close cooperation with leading universities and external testing institutions. As a result of intensive R&D activities, Elkamet can offer you a wide range of materials for rotational molding.
We can provide you with individual advice on selecting the technically and economically optimal material for your project, taking your specific requirements into account. On request, we will be happy to send you technical data sheets for the materials that are suitable for your application.
Do you use steel tanks? Have you ever thought about replacing them with plastic tanks? Let us convince you of the added value that plastic tanks offer. We have decades of experience in advising customers who have made the switch from steel to plastic with us. We advise you with our expertise from concept planning and design to series production.
Versatile polyamide 6 impresses with its high strength, excellent wear resistance, and impressive heat resistance. Ideal for complex geometries and technical applications, PA 6 offers reliable performance in demanding environments.
Polyethylene (PE) is the most widely used plastic in the world, produced by the polymerisation of ethylene molecules. Its wide availability, low production costs and versatile properties such as durability and chemical resistance make PE an extremely popular plastic in various industries. Its resistance to the new HVO fuels has also been proven.
PA11, also known as nylon 11, impresses with its outstanding flexibility, high impact strength, and excellent resistance to chemicals and UV radiation. This makes it perfect for applications in the automotive, electronics, and sporting goods industries.
Polypropylene (PP) is characterised by its high resistance to chemicals, low density and excellent fatigue resistance. It is also very dimensionally stable, moisture-repellent and offers a good balance between rigidity and flexibility.
Polyamide 12 is a thermoplastic that offers excellent chemical resistance, low water absorption and exceptional flexibility. Its reliable performance and durability make it ideal for demanding applications.
XPE impresses with its excellent thermal and sound insulation, high dimensional stability and water resistance. Thanks to its closed-cell structure, it is ideal for applications in the automotive, construction and packaging industries.
