PRODUCT INNOVATION
GRT has one of the industry’s most advanced technical labs to test the physical, chemical, and component properties of materials and finished products. It is a leader in rubber technology with several technical “firsts” including:
- The use of alkali reclaim process to cure rubber more efficiently and make it easier to handle;
- The development and patent of the Rotocure Vulcanization Process for uniform continuous curing; and
- The use of the Bierer-Davis Oxygen Bomb to accelerate rubber aging tests.
GRT’s engineering and field support staff can help customers select the product that best matches their applications and can help customize a product to meet special needs.
