ADVANTAGES OF SILICONE RUBBER KEYPADS
The most important reasons for developing your control panels with silicone rubber are:
- Infinite design options
- Robust material
- Long life cycle
- Exclusive look and feel
- Distinct 3D design shapes possible
Silicone rubber keypads are used as control panels in all types of equipment and machinery. They are particularly suitable for rugged environments such as agriculture, forestry, industrial production etc.
Designers often choose silicone rubber due to its flexibility combined with high durability. Possibilities are pretty much endless. So feel free to order a sample or get in touch with us to learn what is most suitable for your product.

SAFETY IN OPERATION
Silicone rubber keypads offer excellent safety in operation. You can shape the keys into very distinct 3D shapes. And hence ensure high tactility when operating with gloves, or without direct eye contact.
DESIGN FLEXIBILITY
Silicone rubber is a highly flexible material. You can easily add shapes, colours, surface treatments or backlights to your keypad. Thus, design options are countless. And our design team therefore always starts by looking at in your overall requirements and the end-use conditions for your product.

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF KEYPADS
3D DESIGN
Add structure and tactility to your user interface by shaping the control buttons to different 3D shapes. Distinct shapes help your end-users find the controls in an intuitive way. In particular when operating in the dark or without looking at the control panel.
SURFACE TREATMENT
A silicone rubber keypad can withstand exposure to tough environments and elements. The keypad is surface-treated so that it is also less susceptible to dust and dirt. And the surface is available as silk, matte or high gloss, depending on your preference.
BACKLIGHT
Silicone rubber goes well with integrated LED’s. The silicone ensures smooth and uniform dispersion of light. This makes silicone rubber keypads ideal for control panels operated in the dark.
COLOURS
You can add colour to your control panel to reinforce your brand recognition. Or to ensure clear and safe communication. As colours help ensure intuitive controlling and operation. You achieve excellent results by printing colour on silicone rubber keypads. However, inked silicone is also an efficient way to add colour to your control panel.
