"Our development team, development facility, and our commitment
to the continual progression of technology and quality are second
to none." Sentinel Products Corp began building
its foundation for success in 1942 as a small industrial design
and manufacturing facility in Montclair, New Jersey. At that
time, its primary capability was the design, engineering and
production of Sentinel Heat Sealing equipment.
As the company grew, it developed blister pack machinery
and thermoforming equipment. In the late sixties, it started
the development of a product and system that would revolutionize
the packaging market...low-density polyethylene foam. With
a new facility in Hyannis, Massachusetts, Sentinel Foams and
Envelope division was created.
After low-density polyethylene foam was discovered, technology
progressed leading to the creation of crosslinked foams and
metallocene-based elastomers. In 1994, Sentinel Products Corp
began to focus solely on the manufacturing and development
of polyolefin foams.
Today, Sentinel Products Corp is focused on developing
a product line consisting of:
• Turnkey Foam Technology
Solutions for the manufacture of foamed profile and sheet
products specializing in Polyester (PET), Polypropylene
(PP), ThermoPlastic Olefins (TPO's), Thermoplastic Elastomers
(TPE's), Polystyrene (PS and Polyethylene (PE)
• Compounds and Additives, inclusive of Chemical
blowing agents (CBA's) and pelletized talcs
• Moisture Crosslinkable Polymer Compounds utilizing
proprietary silane grafting technology
• Foamed Sheet Products for automotive, industrial,
and packaging applications
• Machinery and Equipment for foam producers |
Development Team
The talent and experience of the Sentinel Development
Team is the backbone of the corporation. Top engineers, scientists
and consultants from around the world insure the continuous
leadership in Foams Technology. Each application is analyzed

Development Facility
Sentinel Products Corp maintains a fully equipped
lab and pilot plant for our scientists and engineers to develop
compounds, products and processing techniques.
From high intensity mixers, roll mills, hydraulic presses
to capillary and torque rheometers, melt indexing equipment
and ash/gel testing equipment...these are all available to
develop compounds and new processes. To complete the development
cycle, several sizes of laboratory twin and single screw extrusion
lines for sheet, profile and pelletizing are available to
provide thorough analysis of the production compounds and
materials.
Commitment to Quality
At Sentinel Products Corp we realize the final test
is customer satisfaction. The products we manufacture must
conform to strict quality guidelines established by You, the
customer. The utilization of our state-of-the-art lab, pursuit
of ISO 9002 certification, commitment from the Sentinel Development
