RICO manufactures molded parts made from liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and solid high temperature vulcanizing silicone rubber (HCR) in large volumes. We produce billions of units every year using fully-automated production methods.

 

We began producing injection molds for silicone parts in 1994. Production has been based at our Thalheim site since 2009. Production runs continuously 24 hours a day, seven days a week. But only our machines work at night. Read more about our unmanned production.

We only produce parts according to our customers’ specifications. RICO can also manufacture multi-component parts featuring a combination of silicone and other materials.

 

We currently produce parts for the automotive, healthcare and life science, sanitary and household, and industrial sectors.
