Gel Pal

About this material

silicone gel pad

Gel Pal is a padding material designed to relieve joint pressure and provide body support. Made solely from Platinum base Silicone with 3 distinct layers (outer skin, gel, back), Gel Pal feels soft like human skin, and offers incomparable comfort, long lasting quality and a wide range of design capabilities.

The outer skin of Gel Pal is thick and resilient yet elastic and tear resistant. For superior strength, a stretchy fabric may be embedded in the skin to make it puncture resistant, which also serves as element of design. The silicone materials used are water clear and can be independently colored. This innovative product is UV stable, heat and fire resistant, skin safe, waterproof, and remains soft when frozen.

Gel Pal’s versatile design material can be used in a variety of cushioning applications.
