As customer demand increases for innovative, sustainable O-Ring solutions, Datwyler is expanding its production capabilities with new molding machines installed at its sites in China and Mexico. Capable of producing thousands of O-Rings every hour, the new machines will use the latest injection molding technology to produce top quality elastomer components for applications such as battery thermal management, power electronics, transmission, sensors, plus electric braking and driveline systems. Further potential solutions for customers from different industries are also being evaluated.

Datwyler is targeting carbon neutrality and moves forward in taking measures for its operations to achieve it by 2030. With the start of 2021, Datwyler transitioned no less than four plants, Pregnana, Montegaldella, Viadanica, and Karlsbad-Itterbach, to renewable electricity. Two additional plants, Alken and Vandalia, already transitioned in mid-2020.
