O&M holds an internation patent on its proprietary process for customizing silicone rubber flexible heaters engineered from fiberglass cloth calendared with silicone rubber and nickel alloy elements.

The greatest advantage of this process is that it allows manufacturing of any quantity of heaters, from a sinngle unit to mass production. This unique capability is not available through any other manufacture in North America.
