FERMAPOR K31 LOW-EMISSION - Polyurethane Foam Gaskets

Polyurethane-based FERMAPOR K31 LOW EMISSION foam gasket systems seal parts for the passenger compartment, without polluting the interior air with VOC-emissions and fogging. This ensures clean, allergen-free air in the car interior. 

Our range of low-emission sealing foams offer: 

• Very low VOC and FOG values
• Effective water barrier – protection classes to IP69K
• Fulfills the low-emission requirements of car manufacturers

FERMAPOR K31 LOW EMISSION systems fulfill the following target values for fogging behavior and for thermal desorption (VOC) and formaldehyde emissions for flexible open-cell polyurethane foams defined in the car manufacturers' standards, for example DBL 5452-13 (Daimler).

FERMAPOR K31 LOW-EMISSION Tested by Independent Institutions

The emission values of FERMAPOR K31 LOW EMISSION foam gasket systems are tested by independent institutions according to the VDA 278 (thermos desorption analysis of organic emissions) and VDA 275 testing standards for formaldehyde emissions. In these tests, evaporation deposits of volatile organic components were measured at low temperatures in the form of VOC values as well as the evaporation of low volatility components at high temperatures, expressed by fog values.

The FIPFG (Formed-In-Place-Foam-Gasket) dispensing technology for automated application of FERMAPOR K31 LOW EMISSION sealing foams directly on to the part is the industry standard in such sectors as the automotive, air conditioning, and filter industries.
