To allow us to do this, the following service resources are made available to our customers that enables us to assist the customer with their product requirements from initial design concept to manufactured finished product.

In-house Design Facilities

We are able to assist the customer in designing, or assisting in the design of the applicable rubber product ensuring it meets/ exceeds the envisaged performance specification and is designed to be cost efficiently manufactured.

In-house mixing facilities

We are able to develop rubber compound to meet the performance requirements of the rubber product. Batch to batch consistency is paramount in our business and we therefore prefer to complete this task in-house. In-house mixing also allows us to be more cost efficient.

Moulding Processes

We have various moulding processes we can employ to manufacture the rubber component. Once we have reviewed customer requirement, we determine the best method to manufacture the product. Moulding equipment on hand allows us to employ either rubber compression moulding, rubber injection moulding or rubber transfer moulding.

Rubber Injection Moulding Process

Rubber Injection Moulding is very similar to transfer moulding and involves transferring rubber from an injection barrel into a closed mould cavity. This moulding process may be utilised for thick sectioned items, composite products e.g. metal bonded to rubber where inserts need to be retained before the introduction of rubber, intricate product that requires high cavity pressure to successfully mould but is predominantly used for high volume multi-cavity mould applications.

Quality Control

In order to ensure that we manufacture a product that is consistent in nature, Specialized Mouldings implemented ISO9001 Quality Management system. Our Quality Management System ensures manufacture consistency, customer satisfaction and continual improvement of both product and processes. We received our ISO certification in 1999.

Rubber Moulding with a Difference

What makes Specialized Mouldings different? Our company was born out of a desire to meet an industry need for locally manufactured specialised moulded rubber product. At that time local rubber product manufactures were, and the majority still are, only producing general purpose rubber product. The only alternative for a customer seeking a specialised moulded rubber product at the time was to import it at greatly inflated prices coupled with poor delivery times. The production of specialised moulded rubber product is still a niche market in South Africa and as such has allowed our company to grow from strength to strength.

We manufacture rubber product in strict accordance to customer requirement. The processes needed to manufacture the product are structured to focus on product quality, consistency and manufacture efficiency. This allows us to manufacture product on time at an acceptable price that meets/ exceeds customer specification. This philosophy has served us well over the past 30 years and remains our key focus moving forward.
