Industrial Solutions
Automotive, Transportation & Equipment Manufacturing
Industrial adhesive, coating and polyurethane technologies for vehicle identification, automotive interiors, filtration, insulated transport panels, brake components and related equipment-manufacturing processes.
Automotive, transportation and equipment manufacture involves varied materials, component designs and production requirements. Genkem assesses the actual substrates, surface condition, component construction, application equipment, production process and required finished performance before recommending a suitable technology.
Adhesive Solutions Across Automotive & Equipment Manufacturing
Genkem supports automotive component manufacturers, interior trim and headlining producers, underfelt and insulation converters, filter manufacturers, truck-body and insulated-panel manufacturers, vehicle-identification businesses, brake and clutch component producers and related industrial equipment manufacturers.
Vehicle, Fleet & Asset Identification
Waterborne security-coating technologies for microdot identification, vehicle marking, fleet and asset protection, industrial equipment identification and related traceability applications.
Automotive Interiors, Trim & Lamination
Adhesive technologies for automotive trim, headlining, carpet, felt, fabric, foam, underfelt, insulation, backed-vinyl lamination, door panels and moulded interior components.
Automotive & Industrial Filtration
Polyurethane binder technologies for automotive air filters, industrial and selected HVAC filtration components, polyurethane filter-foam bonding and related filter-manufacturing processes.
Truck Bodies, Insulated Panels & Composites
Two-component polyurethane adhesive technologies for truck-body panels, refrigerated and insulated vehicle structures, sandwich panels, cold-storage components, GRP panels and related composite assemblies.
Brake & Clutch Component Manufacture
Thermosetting adhesive, protective-coating and process-cleaning technologies for selected brake-lining, brake-shoe, brake-pad and clutch-component manufacturing or reconditioning processes.

Automotive and industrial materials can differ significantly in formulation, backing construction, plasticiser content, oils, release agents, coatings, surface treatments, foam chemistry and composite-resin systems. New or unfamiliar materials, components and production processes should therefore be assessed before full-scale manufacture.
