Adhesive foam is a technical material used in industrial environments to provide functions such as’assemblyof fixationof Jointage or’waterproofing, while retaining the ability to deform and absorb stress.
Thanks to the combination of a foam and an adhesive, this solution allows for the integration of a bonding function directly into the material, without the need for complex mechanical fixings. It is particularly well-suited for applications requiring a clean, reliable, and repeatable integration into industrial processes.
At ADDEV Materials, adhesive foam is approached as a functional component, selected and processed according to the real constraints of the applications.
The adhesive foam is preferred when the objective is to fitter, assembler or joiner components, while compensating for surface irregularities and mechanical tolerances.
It allows:
It constitutes a relevant alternative when mechanical solutions are unsuitable or when a more discreet integration is sought.
An adhesive foam can fulfil several functions in an industrial application:
These functions can be combined, making the adhesive foam particularly versatile.
Adhesive foams are used in many industrial applications, including for:
The choice of foam always depends on the final application and its associated constraints.
Used for interior applications requiring noise attenuation and functional integration into the assembly.
Used to fill gaps and absorb dimensional variations in environments subject to temperature fluctuations.
Suitable for applications requiring temperature resistance, sealing, and compressive strength.
Used in mechanical assembly applications requiring a good compromise between fixing and mechanical behaviour.
Suitable for applications requiring vibration damping and stable performance in technical environments.
Often chosen for applications requiring durability and functional waterproofing.
Appreciated for its conformability and elongation capacity in technical assemblies.
Suitable for uneven surfaces requiring uniform contact.
Single-sided foam is often used for cushioning or waterproofing, while double-sided adhesive foam is used to permanently attach two supports.
Yes, some versions are formulated to resistant to UV, humidity and extreme temperaturesparticularly those with reinforced acrylic adhesive.
Most technical foams are designed for permanent bonding. However, there are versions with differentiated adhesion, which are easier to reposition in the short term.
From 0.8 mm to more than 10 mmwith tight tolerances. Sizes 10 mm adhesive foam are the most popular for their balance between flexibility and hold.
It can be supplied in roll, strip or pre-cut pad. Manual pressure or the use of a roller is all that's needed to ensure good adhesion, without the need for special tools.
