CLAIR EDMUNDS
I have worked for TECHSiL nearly 16 years starting in Customer service, delivering the best service possible and creating great relationships with long standing and new customers alike. I changed into my new role in external sales over two years ago. This move gave me the chance to combine my ability to connect with customers daily, not just over the phone, but face to face. I really enjoy being on the road and getting to see customers onsite to find out, in detail, about their bonding, potting and sealing applications during production. I love nothing more than meeting my customers, new and existing, and helping them to solve any technical conundrums using adhesives, sealants, tapes and our other product offerings. Not one application is the same which makes each day and each visit fascinating.

INDUSTRY APPLICATIONS
Reduce operation noise in vibration prone appliances with specialised foam tapes, noise insulating adhesives and vibration dampening materials to deliver the quiet , lightweight household appliances customers expect.
Achieve seamless, contemporary designs, attach logos and decorative trims, and eliminate unsightly seals and visible fasteners, with optically clear adhesives, precision cut tapes, and materials which resist yellowing and UV degradation. Create premium appliances without compromising structural integrity.
Streamline production with adhesives and tapes that eliminate drilling and welding steps. Bodn dissimilar substrates, attach interior racking and shelving, and reduce assembly time with solutions compatible with automated dispensing equipment.
Fix handles, doors, and brackets which face high stress and load bearing with structural adhesives which offer strong bonds and excellent impact resistance. From compressor mounting to reinforcement bonding, these materials create resilient bonds that last.
Protect PCBs, touch screen displays, and sensors with potting compounds, conformal coatings, and thermally conductive adhesives. Shield electronics from moisture, vibration, and EMI/RFI interference while managing heat dissipation in increasingly smart, connected appliances.
Secure products during shipping with carton sealing tapes, surface protection films, and packaging hot melts. Prevent damage claims, maintain factory finishes, ensuring scratch prtection and that appliances arrive in showroom condition.
Ensure appliance safety standards with flame retardant materials, low VOC tapes, heat dissipation materials to protect from overheating, and FDA approved sealants and adhesives which meet strngent testing requirements with compliance documnetation.
Secure valves, pumps, and prevent leaks with water and airtight sealing materials including form-in-place gaskets and customisable O-rings, with reliable performance across temperature extremes and resistance to water, detergents, and chemicals.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
We have various optically clear silicones for bonding and potting displays one of which is TECHSiL RTV27844, other options for optical bonding displays include the UV adhesive range Hoenle.
In vibration prone applications, silicone or PU is better for potting as epoxy is a lot harder/rigid, providing very little give, making epoxy better for more static and rigid applications.
The 3M VHB 5952 Tape family is a great option as it offers good adhesion to many painted surfaces, including powder coated paint.
Depending on the application, we have a range of silicone gels for potting sensors, along with a range of room temperature vulcanizing silicones that are non corrosive and reactive in sensitive gasketing applications.
At TECHSiL, we offer on-site visits to discuss and gain a better understanding of your applications and process, then we can arrange samples for R&D, pre-production, and production trials
