Looking for custom molded Polyurethane Elastomer parts? Or a material that can provide Bigger, Stronger, Lighter parts?
Maybe you are looking to replace your current FRP, SMC or steel parts?
Parts molded from Polyurethane Elastomer can provide Strong, Lightweight parts to replace heavy, dentable or breakable FRP, SMC or Steel.
Polyurethane elastomers are often used to produce fenders, fascias, trims, interior and exterior panels, doors, chassis fairings, and window surrounds. Or maybe you have another application that requires:
Because of their elastic nature, elastomers produce the most resilient and damage-resistant molded parts. They are extremely resistant to a number of potentially deforming factors including:
Heat
Oils
Chemicals
Abrasion
Impacts
Extreme Weather Conditions
Natural Wear and Tear.
Polyurethane elastomers also have excellent tensile strength and tear resistance, elastomers are an excellent choice for parts which will frequently experience high speeds, such as fenders or body panels of automobiles and machines. Elastomeric parts will remain strong, functional and even aesthetically pleasing for years and years of sustained use.
Utilizing Polyurethane Elastomers can give you and advantage over other materials.
The average cycle time of a PE part is up to 3 minutes. In comparison to FRP or SMC, PE parts can be produced more quickly and thus, less costly per part.
PE parts are lightweight, but do not sacrifice strength. This provides savings in shipping.
PE parts can be in-mold painted unlike FRP or SMC which both require post molding operations. PE parts are beautiful right out of the mold.
Again, unlike SMC or FRP, PE parts can accept in-mold fasteners. Use them to reduce the amount of heavy bracketry needed to mount the part. Instead, a finished paint part is ready to be mounted (after trimming) nearly right out of the mold.
PE parts can help save you time and money! And they can last as long or longer than FRP, SMC or steel while looking beautiful the entire time.

Romeo RIM has been producing Polyurethane Elastomer parts since 1982 starting with our patented HELP® Bumpers.
We offer a number of formulations of Polyurethane Elastomers to get you the exact characteristics you need. We are able to do this by adjusting the amount of filler or by using of a blowing agent.
Our philosophy is to work in close collaboration with our customers to optimize product designs that provide sustainable value to our customers. We do this by bringing together a deep understanding of our customer’s needs and then matching it with the right material, process and part design.
