Aircraft and space technology

Lightweight and non flammable components made from solid and foamed silicone rubber

BIW provides a series of tested materials on a silicone and and silicone foam rubber basis for the application in the
aeronautical engineering sector. The technology focuses on low-weight foamed and non-flammable,
self extinguishing material qualities. Customer requests with respect to colour, hardness and
mechanical properties can be implemented by way of in-house material compounding and process development
across a broad spectrum.
