Customers consistently report that the most valuable benefits are significant time and labor cost savings, along with major reductions in disposable bagging materials and less dependence on highly specialized bagging technicians. Unlike conventional disposable vacuum bagging methods, our reusable systems eliminate the need for sealant tape and pleating, simplifying setup and helping manufacturers achieve consistent and repeatable processing conditions from part to part. The materials are engineered for versatility and durability across a wide range of composite manufacturing processes, including: Pre-preg processing Wet layup Resin infusion Debulking cycles Material laminations Designed for demanding production environments, our silicone materials support process temperatures up to 392°F (200°C) while maintaining flexibility and durability over repeated cycles. To accommodate different tooling geometries and manufacturing workflows, Smartech offers several reusable bagging configurations: Envelope-style reusable vacuum bags with Press|Lock seal Top-half Only vacuum bags with Press|Lock seal Reusable silicone sheet materials for custom bagging solutions These options allow manufacturers to select the most effective approach depending on part geometry, tooling configuration, and production volume. All materials are post-processed to minimize outgassing, supporting stable vacuum conditions and reliable laminate quality during processing. By replacing disposable bagging materials with durable reusable silicone systems, manufacturers can reduce consumable waste, shorten setup times, and improve overall production efficiency. The result is a more sustainable and cost-effective vacuum bagging process without compromising performance. Smartech supports customers across aerospace, advanced composites, industrial lamination, and high-performance manufacturing throughout North America.

Ogden Group

Ogden Group is an international group of manufacturers and distributors, including Ogden Sales, RfsProtech, and Neva Trade, that together offer complete manufacturing solutions to companies within the wood product industry. We specialize in the manufacture of machinery for the engineered flooring industry, including gluers, frame saws and band saw grinding machines. Ogden Group imports, manufactures and distributes the Thin-cutting frame saws and the ReMax 500 CNC Horizontal Re-Saw for industries producing sawn veneer products. The company also manufactures several models of Radio Frequency Edge and Face Glue Presses and Gluers for the high-speed curing of wood in applications such as door stiles and rails, window, door frames, laminated products, cabinets, and furniture. The newest addition to the press line is the Continuous PUR press for the production of engineered flooring. Most recently, Ogden Group has developed a manufacturing method that replaces plywood with a solid core substrate. The core substrate consists of a 2-ply construction – a rotary-peeled or sawn veneer bottom layer and a top layer of sticks that are gang-ripped from 4/4 low-grade lumber. The wear layer is then applied on top of the core substrate. Based on a 2′ x 8′ panel, the system can produce approximately 30,000 sq. ft. of substrate core per shift. Also, for the flooring industry, Ogden produces the DRS Wood Repair System that repairs knots, cracks and other defects using a durable filling solution. Veneer Forming Systems for the manufacture of radial components are also produced and distributed to industries pressing and laminating veneers into half-round, arch and elliptical shapes.
