The R&D department of QEW Engineered Rubber has over 50 years of experience in material development. The development is arried out with the help of in depth material knowledge and is the backbone for many applications. Choosing the right ingredients can be critical for optimal mixing and processing but also for the final application.

The following rubber types are commonly used in QEW and are our main specialty:

• Natural Rubber (NR)
• Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR)
• Butadiene Rubber (BR)
• Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPDM)
• Isobutylene Isoprene Rubber (IIR)
• Nitrile Rubber (NBR)
• Chloroprene Rubber (CR)

QEW aims to contribute to a better and safer environment by banning dangerous ingredients out of our recipes. These ingredients include nitrosamine forming accelerators, high aromatic solvents and CMR (carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction) classified ingredients wherever possible. Our Engineers are willing and able to help you with the challenge to make your recipes fully aligned with environmental legislation.
