Case Study
Small Bead FIP: Breaking the Bead Size Boundaries of Form-In-Place Gaskets
Many of our Defense partners are challenging the boundaries of technology daily. As technology advances, electronics and devices are shrinking in size to accommodate more complex project designs–simply put, they require more technology in less space. It pays to have a manufacturing part who is willing to push the boundaries.
