About GUME
GUME GmbH is a Bavarian manufacturer of molded rubber parts and composite parts with more than 35 years of experience. The company produces molded parts from all elastomers, silicone molded parts from VMQ and FVMQ, and TPE molded parts in high volumes — each in customer-specific geometries, hardness levels and colors. In addition, GUME produces composite systems combining rubber with metal, plastic or fabric, including components for sound and vibration damping as well as fabric-reinforced parts with increased tear strength. The entire value chain is handled in-house: from material selection and CAD design, through in-house toolmaking with milled molds, to first-sample production, sampling and series production. Metal and plastic part manufacturing for composite parts is also kept in-house. Customers come, among others, from medical technology and the offroad equipment sector.
