Vulcanized Fiber
The material for
technical responsibility.
Vulkanfiber
Robust, Malleable, Natural:
Vulcanized fiber is the solution when function, sustainability, and reliability must come together.
HORNEX vulcanized fiber is made from unbleached specialty paper based on cellulose and cotton – sustainable, durable, and produced entirely in-house. It is one of the few materials of its kind still manufactured in Europe today.
As a technical material, vulcanized fiber excels wherever low weight, insulation properties, deep-drawing capability, and environmental awareness are key – from the electrical to the textile industry.

Manufacturing Process:
Our vulcanized fiber is produced in a multi-stage process: Raw paper is treated with a parchmentizing solution, then hardened under pressure and heat, followed by washing, drying, and conversion into rolls, strips, or sheets – all entirely in-house.
