The German rubber industry is an indispensable driver of innovation for numerous key sectors.
For generations, it has been making a vital contribution to the competitiveness of Germany as an industrial hub.
The German rubber industry is far more than a mere supplier – it is an indispensable driver of innovation for numerous key sectors.
Whether in mobility, rail transport, mechanical and plant engineering, energy technology, hydraulic engineering, or industrial infrastructure: high-performance elastomers ensure sealing, damping, vibration isolation, protection, and durability. Without modern rubber components, the safe and cost-effective operation of many technical systems would simply be impossible.
Particularly in an era of increasing demands on sustainability, efficiency, and product lifecycles, the development of specialised rubber compounds and custom-engineered components continues to gain importance. Innovation in this field is frequently driven by medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that combine decades of material expertise with state-of-the-art development and manufacturing technology.
Gummi Hansen has been manufacturing technical rubber products since 1901 and has established itself as a development partner in the fields of anti-vibration, sealing, and hose technology. With in-house compound development as well as the production of profiles, moulded parts, rubber-to-metal bondings, and bespoke solutions, the company embodies the successful bridge between tradition and innovation.
The future of industry is not determined by digital technologies alone. Equally critical are the materials and components that perform reliably behind the scenes – and it is precisely here that the German rubber industry has been contributing to the competitiveness of Germany as an industrial hub for generations.
