Gelfit
Polyurethane-based soft, non-foaming, mold-poured polymer, resulting in closed-structure flexible parts.
This polyurethane gel has positioned itself as the optimum material for the highest standards of comfort thanks to its combination of states. It combines the 3D deformation of a fluid with the form recovery of a solid, making it a flexible and adaptable material suitable for multiple applications.
Better distribution of pressure
Adaptability
Impact Absorption
Gelfit Physical Structure
Unlike polyurethane foams, which have a cellular structure, Gelfit appears as a crystalline solid of uniform structure in its natural form. It can be pigmented according to needs.
Gelfit Chemical Structure
The main raw material used in Gelfit is the MDI-based polyurethane. It is a polymer obtained from the condensation of hydroxyl bases (polyols) combined with isocyanates, in this case MDI (diphenylmethane diisocyanate) in a non-foaming process.
No Toxic / Noxious Substances
Contains no harmful products, heavy metals or restricted substances.
Non-regulated raw materials are not used in production.
Renewable Sources of Raw Materials
Some formulations use polyols from renewable sources such as soybeans.
Biodegradability
Some of the formulations are slowly degradable, while others are not.
Carbon Footprint
The production process consumes a low amount of energy.
Its durability allows an increase in the lifespam of the product to reduce energy by performance.
Production residues
Possibility of recycling Gelfit foam waste by various methods. Either by means of new reactions (if a series of technical conditions are followed) or by grinding and reincorporating the recycled materials into other materials such as PU foams.
Post-consumer waste
Possibility of recycling the product after its lifespam by crushing and reincorporating the recycled materials into new foams.
If recycling is not possible, Gelfit waste can be incinerated under controlled conditions.
