Relationships are not built from a distance. With the 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘶𝘮 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘛𝘰𝘶𝘳, Fabio Gualtieri is visiting converters across Italy. The idea is simple: show that long-term collaboration is noticed and appreciated. Our converters play a key role in turning AFTC materials into real-world applications. That makes their contribution essential. By stopping by in person and handing over a small award, the conversation moves beyond orders and quotations. It becomes about connection, shared experience, and future opportunities. We hope converters see this and think: 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘸𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬. And that colleagues see how powerful a personal gesture can be. #aftc #PremiumConverterTour #Converting AFTC Group Motor Vehicle Manufacturing Kerkrade, Limburg 1,487 followers the best ideas are the ones that stick About us AFTC (Acrylic Foam Tape Company) AFTC (Acrylic Foam Tape Company) is a supplier of double-sided acrylic foam tapes for automotive and general industrial applications.

It’s the result of smart bonding choices behind the scenes. Inside a motorhome, modular interior units such as kitchens, bathrooms, toilets, and storage blocks are constantly exposed to vibration. Without proper vibration damping, these movements would result in rattling, noise, and reduced comfort during travel. Acrylic foam tape plays a key role in these interior applications. It absorbs vibration between modules and the vehicle structure, helping to reduce noise while keeping components securely bonded. At the same time, it supports efficient assembly without mechanical fasteners or added weight. Beyond the interior, acrylic foam tape is also used around window frames, fender flares, grilles, and emblems, where clean assembly and long-term performance are required. Whether driving through mountain roads, along the coast, or during everyday travel, interior bonding needs to perform consistently under continuous movement. That’s where acrylic foam tape is used: in interior applications where vibration control and reliability matter, mile after mile. #aftc #AcrylicFoamTape #VehicleDensign #SmartBonding - #PeopleofAFTC Michael Thole 𝗿𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁, 𝘆𝗲𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝘂𝗽 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲. Between customer projects, he runs his own tests. Not because someone asked. But because one day, someone will. He’s quietly building a library of insights: which tape bonds to which substrate, under which conditions and which performance. No deadline. No demo. Just the right data, ready when it matters most. That’s what preparation really looks like, doing the work before the question is asked.
