ecoGenesis Enables the Replacement of Polyurethane with Lower Cost Materials

The ecoGenesis RF plastics welding technology provides an unmatched degree of versatility in raw material selection. Our manufacturing technology has the unique ability to replace an expensive material like polyurethane with a lower cost raw material previously believed to be unweldable.

Unlike traditional RF welding technologies, ecoGenesis provides numerous options to replace PU with more cost effective and ecologically-friendly materials such as polyethylene and polypropylene.
