Platinum-cured molded parts are silicone products that are produced through a special manufacturing process using platinum as a catalyst. KREMER uses this manufacturing process, for example, in the production of silicone molded parts for the food industry.

What are platinum-cured silicone molded parts?

These molded parts are transparent, odorless and tasteless and meet the highest requirements of the food industry. They are ideal for freezing foods and liquids such as ice cream, as they offer frost resistance and protection for the quality of the products.

Why platinum as a catalyst?

Platinum enables a modern cross-linking process that does not produce any extractable components. This means that the end product does not contain any substances that could be dissolved out.

Benefits for the food industry

Platinum-cured molded parts offer numerous advantages:

• They are food-safe and biocompatible, which makes them ideal for direct contact with food.
• It is chemically stable and durable without yellowing.
• Safe also for pharmaceutical applications

KREMER is a strong partner for the food industry – for example, we also manufacture silicone rings for filtration systems , O-rings for sustainable coffee capsules and plastic seals for a honey spout .
