 | | NOREX® and NORPRENE® custom extruded foam profiles offer a number of features specially designed to enhance user productivity. The extrusions feature a "skin" which eliminates open surface cells, making them excellent for sanitary applications and providing a superior seal against light, dust and moisture. All NOREX® and NORPRENE® extrusions are resistant to weather and oxidation and remain flexible at low temperatures. |
Custom-designed profiles allow Saint-Gobain to tailer the properties to meet your needs. We have the flexibility to adjust density, shape, colour and spool length. Profiles are also available as foam only or with optional pressure-sensitive adhesive to facilitate the assembly process.
NOREX® is a PVC-based foam polymer. This economical solution is an attractive alternative to wet caulk sealing methods.
NORPRENE® is a thermoplastic elastomer with enhanced temperature and chemical resistance for demanding applications. The high-performing foam (TPE) provides better heat aging performance, superior resistance to inorganic materials and faster compression recovery than PVC foams.
