We utilise innovation potential and sophisticated modern technology in our work processes. Over the past 5 years, ZPV has invested more than EUR 1,000,000 into research and development.

Mats manufactured using this technology are made from 100% recyclable material from high-quality SEBS-based materials.

During production of textile mats, we use carpet with PP fibre or high-quality PA6 fibre meeting the high demands of the automotive industry. Mats are punched on an automatic machine or cut using a plotter. The final edging or sewing operation allows for a combination of colours or materials according to customer requirements.

This concerns unique technology combining SBR-EPDM rubber with a woven polyester fabric which can be printed according to customer requirements. The special bonding technology gives the final product a metallic look an ensures high resistance to abrasion.

Long-term production of rubber mats on large-area vulcanisation multi-layer moulding presses. This concerns the process of vulcanisation of SBR or SBR-EPDM rubber with the option of producing large-area products.
