We take your rubber project
from concept to final product.

Compound Receipt

At Nufox, quality is at the core of everything we do. All of our Compound suppliers undergo a thorough assessment to determine their suitability and we operate a continuous evaluation process.

On receipt, our highly skilled technical department evaluates and checks the incoming material to ensure conformance.

Compound Testing

Compound and product testing is carried out as required in our extensively equipped laboratory to confirm compliance with customer specifications.

Where appropriate, bespoke tests are designed to suit a particular product to ensure fitness for purpose and are carried out either in house or in conjunction with the customer.

Preparing for Production

To ensure consistency of supply, once production parameters are established, they are recorded and issued with each order.

The operator confirms that he has the correct compound for the job and records the batch numbers so that Nufox has full traceability.

Pre-Production Checks

Prior to commencing production the operator checks to ensure that the product is the correct size. Rubber is an elastomer and therefore, despite the many controls used in compounding, variation is inevitable. Our operators are highly skilled in visual inspection and adjusting speeds, temperatures and pressures to ensure the product is within tolerances, these adjustments being recorded for subsequent production.

Production

Dimension checking and visual inspection is carried out continually during production.

Final Inspection & Packing

At this stage, the product will have its final check dimensionally, visually and for specific physical properties such as hardness.

Nufox use a number of packing methods to meet customer requirements.

Despatch

Either the customer can make their own arrangements, or transport can be arranged by Nufox on their behalf.
