High-Performance Extrusion Solutions for the Appliance Industry

At Sherwood Industries, we specialize in high-quality extruded thermoplastics and rubbers, providing custom components for home appliances. Our expertise in extruding EPDM/PP and SEBS allows us to manufacture sheet and profile extrusions for hoses, gaskets, seals, dampeners, refrigerator trays, and more; ensuring efficiency, durability, and reliability.

Sherwood’s extruded materials are ideal for making parts for use in household appliances.

Our advanced elastomers are widely used in washing machines, refrigerators, dishwashers, dryers, small appliances, and floor care products due to their exceptional properties:

Superior Flex Fatigue Resistance – Ideal for hoses, seals, and dampeners in moving applications.
Chemical & Detergent Resistance – Withstands harsh cleaning agents in household appliances.
Thermal Stability – Performs reliably in high-heat and freezing conditions.
Lightweight & Moldable – Enables cost-effective, high-precision manufacturing.
Hydrolytic Stability – Resists moisture degradation, ideal for dishwasher applications.
Good Mechanical Strength & Oil Resistance – Withstands moderate temperatures, vegetable oils, and animal fats, making it perfect for dishwashers and kitchen appliances.
