Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What is the difference between LSR injection molding and compression molding for silicone keypads?
LSR (Liquid Silicone Rubber) injection molding is best suited for high-volume production runs requiring complex geometries and micro-precision features. It offers faster cycle times and automated flash-free manufacturing. Compression molding, on the other hand, is more cost-effective for lower volumes, larger keypads, and specific material formulations—making it ideal for prototyping and medium production runs.
Q
Are your custom silicone keypads suitable for medical device applications?
Yes. We offer medical-grade silicone formulations that are hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and odorless, fully compliant with healthcare and food contact application standards. These materials meet the strict requirements of the medical device industry and are ideal for patient-facing or sterile environment equipment.
Q
Can the keypads be made waterproof or dustproof?
Absolutely. Our silicone keypads can be designed with seamless waterproof integration to provide dust and moisture protection for your devices. This makes them suitable for outdoor equipment, industrial controls, insulated water bottles, and other environments where IP-rated sealing is required.
Q
What surface finishing options are available for custom branding and labeling?
We offer a wide range of surface finishing and branding options including laser etching for permanent sharp markings, silk-screen printing for multi-color logos and text, PU coating for a soft-touch feel, UV coating for maximum durability, and various textured finishes such as matte, glossy, and fine grain. These can be combined to achieve your desired aesthetic and functional requirements.
Q
How durable are custom silicone keypads under repeated use?
Our premium silicone keypads are engineered for exceptional longevity. Thanks to the material's exceptional elasticity, they maintain their shape and tactile properties over millions of actuations. Combined with chemical resistance to oils and cleaning agents, UV and weather resistance, and temperature stability across extreme conditions, they deliver reliable long-term performance in demanding applications.
Q
Can you produce custom silicone keypads for small prototype orders as well as large production runs?
Yes. Our versatile manufacturing capabilities cover both ends of the production spectrum. Compression molding provides cost-effective tooling ideal for prototyping and medium runs, while LSR injection molding supports high-volume production with consistent dimensional accuracy. Whether you need a small prototype batch or a large-scale order, we can accommodate your requirements.
