The automotive industry uses numerous electronic components in traditional, hybrid and electric vehicles.

The functioning of electrical and electronic components generates heat and increases pressure inside the housing. Sensitive components therefore need to be protected against extreme temperatures and pressures, as well as water and dust intrusion. Why? To enable them to operate correctly and withstand long-term exposure to harsh conditions. Housing ventilation is therefore a major challenge.

Our ePTFE venting membranes (GERGOVENT) guarantee that no water, dust or other dirt can get in, and they react quickly and effectively to pressure differentials.
GERGOVENT adhesive venting membranes for the automotive industry are high-performance solutions that prevent serious damage to electronic components.

Venting solutions for automotive applications

Our automotive ePTFE venting membranes protect against water and dust intrusion, while allowing the evacuation of heat, humidity (to avoid condensation especially) and overpressure. They are used on sensitive components such as:

• lighting systems (front or rear headlights, turn signals)
• automotive sensors
• many electronic boxes
• cameras
• motors and pumps

GERGONNE adhesive automotive vents are all PFOA free and dicyclohexyl phthalate free.
