conditions. At the same time, it forms the basis for
our company’s success, which, as our current order
situation shows, should also continue in the future.”
REIKU’s product portfolio covers more than
8,000 different items and individual components
that protect electrical wiring, cables and other
components from contamination and chemical,
thermal and mechanical stress. The production
figures are impressive: In 2018, the company
processed well over 400 tons of plastics granules
into nearly 2,400 km of tubing and several million
injection moldings. The portfolio is focused not only
on the range of plastic tubings with their application-
specific variations, but also on the flexible, highly
stress and wear-resistant REIKU jointed tubing
cable protection system for static and dynamic
applications. With a large variety of nominal widths,
variants and accessories such as gripping clamps,
clips, end-pieces, connectors, joint connections and
cablestars, REIKU is one of the European market
leaders in this field.
Supplements to the current product range include
system sheathings with zip closure, the REIKU heat
protection materials GLASO, GLASIL and Kevlar
for applications in which cables and components
have to be protected against temperatures of up
to 800 °C, and fine-braided tubings as a fast and
clean solution for the protection of cables that
have to be laid flexibly or retain their flexibility. In
view of the continuously increasing market success,
David Guitton adds: “Among the most important
applications of our products are industrial robots and,
in particular, extremely flexible cobots, in which our
in-house development team works closely together
with Universal Robots, Kuka and others. Especially
here we are seeing rapidly growing demand for our
cable protection systems, which is stretching the
production and storage facilities at our site in Wiehl-
Bomig to their limits. To ease the situation, we intend
to acquire more building land in the direct vicinity of
our existing site before the end of this year.”
