These products, designed for the automotive industry, come with a two-year warranty for resistance to oils, greases, weather conditions, and aging.
Business Expansion and Introduction of Innovations
Although Carbo d.o.o. initially specialized in the automotive industry, the company quickly expanded into other sectors. This broader approach enabled continuous development and adaptation to market needs. In 1998, Carbo began producing raw rubber compounds, further diversifying its product range and providing even greater value to its clients.
Global Operations: Carbo Kft. in Hungary
In addition to its successful operations in Serbia, international expansion has played a key role in the company’s growth. In 1992, Carbo Kft. was established in Hungary with the goal of distributing products to Central European markets. Through this subsidiary, Carbo Kft. also became a representative of manufacturers from Serbia and other former Yugoslav countries, which facilitated business expansion and entry into new markets.
Manufacturing Process: High Standards and Flexibility
The foundation of Carbo d.o.o.’s development is based on constant improvement and innovation in the manufacturing process. Production is carried out according to technical documentation or samples provided by clients, ensuring full adaptability to their needs. From the selection of raw materials to finished products, each step is carefully controlled to ensure top-notch quality.
Various raw materials are used in the production, including NR (natural rubber), SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber), NBR (nitrile rubber), EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene rubber), VMQ (silicone rubber), and FKM (Viton). The selection of the appropriate material depends on the specific requirements of the product, such as resistance to temperature, ozone, oils, fuels, acids, and water. All materials used in production are strictly selected to meet high quality standards and technical specifications.
Extrusion and Injection Molding: New Steps in Production
One of the key segments of Carbo d.o.o.’s business is the compounding and extrusion of raw rubber mixtures, which enables the creation of various rubber parts according to customer specifications. Additionally, the company is involved in the production of plastic parts (PE, PP) using injection molding, expanding its product portfolio and improving service to the market.
Carbo d.o.o. is a prime example of a family business that has built a strong reputation in the industry as a reliable and high-quality manufacturer over the years.
