SMC/BMC offer lower weight and toughness compared to ceramic parts, and better pigmentability than phenolic moulding materials. SMC/BMC provides an ideal combination of chemical resistance, mechanical strength, electrial insulation and heat resitance.

Dimensional accuracy is maintained over a wide range of temperatures, which, combined with high strength and good creep resitance, make SMC/BMC ideal for switchgear, machine bases, street light canopies, cabinets, housings and other demanding applications.
