Choosing the Right Silicone Company
Selecting the right silicone company isn’t just about price or lead time — it’s about whether the material you receive will perform reliably in your application, meet the right specification, and arrive with the traceability and quality controls your industry requires. The right silicone partner understands not only the material, but the environment, regulatory requirements, […]
Silicone Requalification: Know the Risks and Costs
Buying silicone sheeting and uncured compound might seem like a low-risk activity, even when you’re purchasing spec-grade materials. A silicone that’s “qualified” meets mechanical, chemical and regulatory requirements and can remain in the same bill of materials (BOM) for years. In an age of global sourcing, however, believing that a compound won’t change is risky. […]
