NovaFlex® – market leadership in low-density foams
Our NovaFlex® technology was developed for the production of foams with densities below 20 kg/m³ approx. With about 90 units sold, the eco-friendly NovaFlex® system has proven itself as one of the most promising solutions on the market. The new NovaFlex® - MultiFill process is available for the addition of fillers.

For densities below 20 kg/m³
Foams with a density below 20 kg/m³ approx. cannot be produced without adding a blowing agent. Foams in this density range account for about 25 % of European sales and represent by far the greatest portion of the global market. In all of these applications, the reliable NovaFlex® technology is the solution of choice when it comes to meeting highest quality standards.


Eco-friendly foaming with natural carbon dioxide
The NovaFlex® process uses natural carbon dioxide as a substitute for environmentally harmful blowing agents such as CFC and methylene chloride. CO2 does not have to be extracted or synthesized but is a naturally occuring resource.



Superior economic efficiency
CO2 has 3.2 times the blowing effect of methylene chloride and costs only one-fifth. As a result, blowing agent costs will be reduced by more than 90 %.

NovaFlex® is retrofittable on all continuous lines
NovaFlex® equipment is very versatile in use. It can be retrofitted on conventional machines such as Hennecke's UBT lines, high-pressure machines with a fall-plate section such as QFM or MultiFlex and trough machines.


Top quality
NovaFlex® foam is a higher-grade product than its counter­parts of similar density blown with methylene chloride or CFC. Apart from its optimum density and hardness distribution, NovaFlex® foam is noted for its excellent and uniform cell structure. Pin­holes and voids are no longer a problem.


Further NovaFlex® highlights
Latex-like touch
Improved air and moisture control due to the more uniform open-cell structure
New formulating options open up new markets
MultiStream technology for unsurpassed manufacturing versatility
High production reliability
Infinite run lengths, limited only by storage capacity
Exact reproducibility
Permits the use of filled and PHD polyols
Suitable for processing inorganic fillers and melamine
