Thermoplastic Elastomers compounds

Ortofon works closely with European compound suppliers in order to develop and test new materials. The new materials elaborated by Ortofon have very good properties regarding acoustic damping and isolation vibration.

Our compounds comply with the requirements for environmental and chemical resistance, skin kindness, bio-compatibility and UV resistance. All Ortofon compounds comply with ISO 10993-5.

We also have the capability to elaborate new compounds according to customer requirements.
