About Gima-Gummi
Gima-Gummi GmbH is a manufacturer and supplier of rubber compounds and molded rubber parts based in Dissen a.T.W. The company was founded in 1982 by Manfred Wetzel in Löhne/Westfalen and has been producing at the Dissen site since 1986. The compounds are produced on high-performance mixing mills on two separate production lines for black, colored and white compounds. Based on 13 processed elastomer types such as NR, EPDM, NBR, CR and FPM, compounds are manufactured to customer requirements. Using the compression molding process, the company produces molded rubber articles of various dimensions as well as rubber-to-metal bonds, roller coverings, plates with interleave film, feeding strips, calendered goods and profiles on behalf of customers. Every batch is tested in the rheometer; hardness and density values are standard. The team consists of seven skilled professionals with many years of operational experience; the company is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015.
