Global electrical and electronics manufacturers trust Porex to develop and manufacture a wide variety of porous plastic venting, filtration, and reflectivity solutions.
Acoustics
Acoustics engineers across the world trust POREX® acoustics vents and sound dampening components to ensure consistent sound quality. Wind screens for microphones, vents for electronics and general sound dampening are a few of our many acoustic applications.
IP Protection Vents
From smartphones to electric toothbrushes, consumers use multiple devices each day. To protect electronic enclosures of cell phones, digital cameras, headphones, wearables and more, our team of experts designed POREX Virtek® IP rated protection vents.
Printers
As a global leader in inkjet reservoir media, Porex creates a wide range of products for printing systems, including the highest ink release media on the market, plus options for ink wicks, free ink vents, and 3D printer filters and diffusers.
Semiconductors
Improve purity and performance of semiconductors by using POREX® porous solutions to assure your products and processes meet the highest quality and performance standards. Our high-purity POREX Virtek PTFE, PE, and PP products have precise porosity allowing for consistent electrical and flow properties.
Sensors
The usage of POREX materials maximizes the performance of many sensor applications, including gas absorption, effective venting, precise diffusion, electrolyte holding and wicking, catalyst support, and reflective media. Our customizable solutions for sensor applications can be tailored to specific applications or devices and seamlessly integrated with many manufacturing processes.
Telecommunications
Specifically designed to ensure flexibility and product functionality, our POREX® electronics substrates exhibit excellent dielectric properties with a dielectric constant as low as 1.4. Our POREX Virtek PTFE materials are robust, have low dielectric properties and high temperature resistance with a surface structure that allows for printing or plating of metals.
Wind and Solar
POREX® protection vents and filters help renewable energy systems run more reliably. Our venting solutions repel water, dust and dirt, and allow the device to breathe during heating and cooling cycles. Our vents are more durable, more easily welded to plastic housings, and more customizable to your specifications than competitive vents. Our diverse filter media offering can be utilized in both liquid and air applications.
