Korean Enterprise AFC: EPDM rubber foam material manufacturer - Interfoam exhibitor Star Force

Korean Enterprise AFC: EPDM rubber foam material manufacturer - Interfoam exhibitor Star Force

 

AFC manufactures 'EPDM rubber' in 'open cell' and 'closed cell',as well as CR rubber.

Upon request, EPDM order can be placed in 'roll' or 'sheet' types, according to your needs.

Since 2002, we have continuously invested in R&D and have developed a unique technology for EPDM rubber that differentiates with others.This technology is the backbone of high quality EPDM rubber production.

 
 

EPDM OPEN CELL(=SEMI CLOSED CELL)

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) Open Cell Sponge is a lightweight, flexible material featuring an open-cell structure that allows air and moisture to pass through. Unlike closed-cell types, open cell EPDM offers excellent breathability while maintaining strong cushioning and vibration-dampening properties.

This material is ideal for applications that require air or sound permeability, as well as superior resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV exposure. It is commonly used in the automotive, HVAC, and construction industries for sealing, sound insulation, and dust-proofing.

 

Key Features

- Open-cell structure for air and sound permeability

- Excellent resistance to weather, UV, and ozone

- Good cushioning and compression recovery

- Lightweight and flexible for easy handling

- Suitable for thermal and acoustic insulation

Typical Applications

- Automotive interior sealing and padding

- HVAC filter seals

- Soundproofing components

- Anti-vibration pads

- Construction gaskets and insulation layers

 

EPDM CLOSED CELL

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) Closed Cell Sponge is a durable, weather-resistant material with a tightly sealed cell structure that prevents the passage of air, water, and dust. This structure makes it ideal for sealing and insulation applications where moisture and environmental protection are critical.

Known for its excellent resistance to UV rays, ozone, and extreme temperatures, EPDM closed cell sponge is widely used in the automotive, construction, and electronics industries. It provides reliable cushioning, thermal insulation, and long-term durability in both indoor and outdoor environments.

 

Key Features

- Closed cell structure for superior water and air sealing

- Excellent resistance to UV, ozone, and aging

- Wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +120°C)

- Good shock absorption and thermal insulation

- Flame retardant and weatherproof options available

Typical Applications

- Automotive weatherstripping and door seals

- HVAC system insulation

- Electrical enclosure gaskets

- Construction expansion joints

- Industrial equipment vibration dampening
