Polyurethane is being used more and more in so many different applications in the agricultural industry as it replaces, traditional rubbers, plastics and even steel. Verses steel, this super material can absorb vibration which reduces noise, is lighter weight, abrasion and wear resistant in corrosive environments. It’s also cheaper to manufacture as it has no requirement for expensive processes like welding or machining.
This lighter alternative to rubber protects the crops when harvesting and handling is more gentle, ensuring less waste.
