Gyftane® resins for castings

Kit Gyftane

Gyftane® polyurethane systems have been developed to meet casting needs for your parts.

To date, we have designed over 100 formulations. Among its characteristics, Gyftane® is thermosetting and can be cast at room temperature. In addition, it meets very demanding criteria and complies with European industry standards REACH and RoHS (REACH: Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals Regulation / RoHS: Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive).

The product range contains diverse hardness levels (Shore A and D), ranging from very soft to very hard. Thus, you will find foams and silicones, including rubbers from soft to hard. In addition, this urethane is available in a wide range of standard colors; we can also custom make the shade you want.

Offered in kits, Gyftane® systems can be used for your innovations as well as your small series productions. Our team based in Granby will guide you towards solutions adapted to your casting projects. And it is always with pleasure that we will provide you with technical support and answer your questions.
