Alpha gel is one of TAICA Corporation's umbrella brand, collectively given to their patented, multifunctional silicone gel. For over 20 years, 's softness has established unique and distinct position in vibration isolation, shock absorption, thermal conductivity, and comfortable feel in ways traditional solutions have fallen short.

An ordinary fresh raw egg dropped down from 18 meters high to a 2 cm thick Alpha Gel bed does not break. This outstanding shock absorbability and vibration damping capabilities have helped to meet with different shock absorbing requirements in sporting good and industrial markets globally over decades.

Catching a Falling Object Tenderly - Excellent Cushioning And Vibration Damping Perforamance.

* Alpha Gel's softness allows for deflection required for gently dispersing energy like ripples of water without damaging a falling object. This provides excellent cushioning and vibration damping performance.

Environmentally Friendly And Excellent Durability.

* Alpha Gel is highly resistant to ozone, UV rays, and chemicals, making it possible to use in a variety of locations. In addition, performance is maintained even after repeated compression.

Stable Performance Even In a Harsh Environment.

* Alpha Gel's properties show little change in the - (minus) 40 degree C (104F) to 200 degree C (392F) range, providing stable performance.

Extremely High Safety.

*Alpha Gel's composition makes it harmless to the human body and to the environment, causing no allergies when touched, and emitting no harmful gases when burned.

Outstanding Platform for Additional Functions and Enhanced Performance.

*On top of the unique combination of excellent features, Alpha Gel also works as a reliable foundation for additional functions and for enhancing performance without compromixing the merits softness brings. Its softness and conformity help minimize heat resistance and stress on critical devices in electronics, for example.

Designing Specs. and Performance to Meet with Your Needs

*Alpha Gel could be custom-designed to satisfy a variety of your requirements.
