LIGHT WEIGHT
Nature provides the geometry, we provide the honeycomb composite material. Nida-Core is extruded from tough, versatile polypropylene plastic. (Other materials are available). Thermo fused to the honeycomb cells are non-woven polyester bonding scrims with a polypropylene barrier film to limit resin consumption. When encapsulated in a laminate it is recognized by the US Coast Guard as a primary flotation material in small boats.
ROT PROOF
PVC and SAN Foams are attacked by styrene and absorb water when exposed, plywood and balsa rot or lose strength when wet. Nida-Core does NOT rot and is unaffected by most solvents and chemical agents. Additionally, when encapsulated in a laminate using a non-aqueous resin the scrim forms a seal limiting water migration through the structure, even if skin is punctured.
EXCELLENT BOND
The cell walls are fused into the non-woven polyester scrim. That coupled with the scrim's affinity for virtually any resin or adhesive system provides exceptional bond and peel strength.
IMPACT RESISTANCE
There are many cores that can make a light, stiff structure. Nida-Core, however, combines the light weight and stiffness of honeycomb with tough polypropylene plus superior bonding properties due to the thermo fused scrim. The combination allows Nida-Core to absorb and dissipate impacts and shocks repeatedly that would cause ultimate catastrophic failure in other core materials.

KREMPEL plastic sheets and moulded parts are produced from our own prepregs using multi-level plate presses and moulding presses, in autoclaves or on vacuum tables. This makes it possible to guarantee an extremely high standard for the quality and to meet even the most stringent customer requirements.
The main reason for this is because we manufacture the starting materials ourselves within the KREMPEL-GROUP and hence can control the properties of our boards and mouldings right from the very beginning.

With careful compounding, Butyl compound can be made to acquire really good tensile strength. It is resistant to most inorganic products and highly resistant to mineral acids, alkalines and aqueous acids. We do not recommend its use in applications where resistance to oils and Hydrocarbons is required.

M.E.C. GUM ®
Rubber sheets and mats are particularly suitable, in terms of composition, behaviour, cost, hardness, elasticity and finishing, for systems put to a more frequent use.
When choosing the quality you require, you should consider above all the presence of:
1. natural agents (light, ozone, etc.)
2. chemical agents (oils, fats, fuel, acids, solvents, etc.)
3. physical agents (high/low temperature)
4. mechanical agents (abrasive actions, repetitive stresses, heavy loads).
Choosing the wrong quality product could result in a rapid deterioration in its performance.

Water intended for human consumption without imparting any toxic effect is drinking water. Water of sufficient quality to serve as drinking water is termed as potable water whether it is used as such or not. The non-metallic materials can cause changes in water quality when it comes in contact with it.
BS 6920 and its modified version AS/NZS 4020:2002 (for Australian and New Zealand requirements) is the method for testing the water quality –i.e, ‘Testing of products for use in contact with drinking water’ and any non-metallic product should comply with these test requirements for getting the approval given by Water Quality Centre (WQC).
Zenith PWS has been developed for using in contact with drinking water which has been met all the technical and biological property requirements as tested by following the corresponding Standards.
Zenith PWS is a high performance and low specific gravity (1.13) EPDM rubber compound which can be applied for water fitting (supplying) parts e.g., lining, joining, gaskets, membranes, cisterns, O-rings, washers that are used in contact with drinking water.

Silicone rubber is physiologically inert, thus making it the preferred choice of medical, pharmaceutical and food processing industries. Silicone have comparatively low mechanical properties, tensile strength, elongating and tear strength, however they keep constant even at high temperatures but should not be used with high pressure steam. Its resistance to oil and hydrocarbon products is fairly limited and similar to that of Chloroprene rubbers. Reasonable resistance to to a whole range of general chemical products, but acids, alkalis, esters and kerosene should be avoided. Silicone has excellent resistance to heat (dry air), at +200°C intermittent. It remain flexible at low temperatures of -70°C and it is also resistant to ultra-violet light, Ozone and weathering. Exhibits low inflammability and low smoke toxicity. It has good electrical insulation properties.
Zenith manufactures numerous types of silicone compounds for various applications.
