Reduce production cost and increase your flexibility
By outsourcing production to Jirotex, you not only increase your flexibility, you will also be able to service your end-customers faster and at a lower cost. We handle the full and often complex supply chain. We take care of everything from purchasing of raw materials such as foam, wood, metal, fabric, leather etc. till finished product.
Materials processing
Jirotex processes laminates. We can provide machining as cutting, die-cutting, tape lamination, cutting to length and slitting of foam, laminates and homogeneous materials. We also offer sewing and have a wide range of special tapes for applications such as case linings, vibration dampers and sound absorbers.
Adhesive lamination
Heat-activated adhesive films and adhesive meshes join two or more materials such as fabric, felt and foil. Films can be adapted to suit requirements and can be impermeable, permeable or non-rustle. Examples of end products include sound absorbers, gloves, seat underlays and footwear soles. Tape is often used on the back of a material or laminate to provide a self-adhesive side.
Flame laminating
Flame laminating joins foam (polyurethane, polyethylene) in various thicknesses to textile, foil, non-woven or other surface materials. Laminating may be single or double sided. Common end products are automotive and boat upholstery, heating pads and bedding laminates.
Product development
As a customer you gain access to our expertise in laminating and our R&D into new materials and techniques. We also have specialist expertise in design and control technology. This, combined with our experience from most industries and our own flexible production, provides you with unique opportunities for developing new, innovative products.
We are experts in lamination here at Jirotex. We have our own manufacturing, R&D and highly motivated personnel with specialist expertise. All under one roof in Sandared, Sweden. This means we are not only able to offer unique customized solutions, but also major volumes.
Extremely high standards
It is quite simple, really: Laminating improves a product’s qualities by joining two or more materials together. It can mean characteristics like comfort, protection, design, sound insulation, damping, durability and waterproofing. For example, the products we make for NASA and ESA are used to reduce noise in the payload compartment in the nose of a rocket. Need we add that requirements are extremely high…
Collaboration and improvements
With more than forty year’s experience, we can confidently say no lamination assignment is beyond us. As specialists, we work closely with our customers R&D and production departments in collaborations that gives them access to our expertise, lab and test resources. On request, our production unit is also able to offer product development and improvements in addition to laminations.
R&D
