Check them out! | Reusable Silicone Vacuum Bagging Solutions for Composites Processing, Solar, Glass and Wood lamination Smartech International provides reusable silicone vacuum bagging solutions designed to improve process efficiency, repeatability in composites manufacturing. 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.
