We are engaged in the research and development of physically expanded polyethylene foams TUBEX, SPURO, SPURO Foam, SPURO Profile and others. We have applied our experience and knowledge of the exceptional physical properties of expanded plastics in the design and production of practical shelters IGLOU and BETTER SHELTER, intended primarily for homeless people.
In addition to helping individuals, our foams also contribute to reducing the carbon footprint of many carriers who use our HARDEX foam cores for composite panels in their vehicle structures. We are continuously innovating our packaging materials and other foam products based on the application, desired durability and target mechanical and physical properties.
Development and innovation of roof and side plastic panels of a modular housing system
Current innovations are primarily focused on improving the quality of life of residents in terms of thermal and lighting comfort and achieving maximum safety of the “house” during use. We develop non-flammable, non-halogen systems with regard to health safety and providing the longest possible time for possible evacuation.
Through UV stabilization and continuous improvement of mechanical and physical properties, we strive to achieve maximum product durability. At the same time, we focus on reducing the carbon footprint through material uniformity, which allows for full recycling at the end of the product’s life.
Development and innovation of PP-based composite foams for specialized sandwich panels
HARDEX is an extruded XPP foam designed for lightweight sandwich panels without the need for gluing. It serves as a sustainable replacement for plywood, PET/XPS foams, PP honeycombs and other board materials in structural applications. At the same time, it is easily thermoformable for more demanding applications. It is used in roofs, floors, walls, truck and bus fronts, automotive parts (trunk boards, platforms, headliners, battery cases), UAVs/drones, residential modules and other structures. Thanks to its low weight and the possibility of rapid thermal lamination, it significantly simplifies production, increases capacity and reduces operating costs. The final sandwich panel can be designed as fully recyclable, VOC-free and in accordance with the principles of the circular economy.
We actively help customers in the design and development of sandwich panels and related production technologies – from choosing the right panel structure to optimizing lamination or the design of the final product/part. Thanks to our own R&D, we are globally pushing the boundaries of innovation in lightweight and sustainable composite solutions.
Development and innovation of mattresses, pads and elements designed for the needs of children and adults, for bathing, relaxation, fitness or camping
We develop our foam with regard to the application, the required product lifespan and ensuring optimal mechanical and physical properties.
Development and innovation of PE-based packaging foams and PE and PP foam systems
According to the needs of our customers, we innovate the mechanical and thermal insulation properties of the product, improve chemical resistance, develop special damping elements, non-flammable systems and more.
We are convinced that the future belongs to nanomaterials. That is why, in cooperation with Tomas Bata University in Zlín, we launched research and development in the field of filtration of ultrafine particles in gases and liquids in 2019. Together, we are searching for and finding their surprising and extremely necessary use in many fields of human activity. We produce and sell our own nanofiber membranes under the name SPURTEX®.
We have also applied the excellent filtration efficiency in the production of our own line of protective work equipment. We use SPURTEX® membranes with exceptional nanoparticle capture capabilities in the development of filtration layers for military protective clothing. At the same time, we are actively experimenting with their functionalization for high-tech applications with an emphasis on the specific needs of military deployment.
Development of a specially functionalized membrane for application in protective military clothing
We are developing filtration layers at the material level of nanofibers, which are able to provide maximum protection against solid and aerosol particles. We emphasize maintaining lightness and comfort when using protective clothing and its maximum durability, with a minimal decrease in functional parameters.
Development of a substitution for commonly used glass filtration materials
A new material composition of a filter insert for protective work equipment and air conditioning units using nanofibers and microfibers, which brings innovation in maximum filtration efficiency and capture in the area of nanoparticles.
Development of a special filtration unit for filter jugs and kitchen faucets
We are working on an innovative solution to improve the quality and taste of drinking tap water. Specialized filtration units using materials with functional submicron fibers that capture and destroy unwanted bacteria are designed for application in filter jugs and kitchen faucets.
During development and subsequent production, we place great emphasis on topics such as environmental protection and responsible business. 95% of the products we produce are recyclable. You will be surprised where you can find our solutions.
Thanks to our own recycling center SPUR Recycling, we help our customers with products made from high-quality recycled material that meets strict criteria for industrial use – from development, through prototypes to series production.
