The company
Linea ar srl has been involved in polyurethane foam moulding for the production of products and prototypes since 1969. Located in the province of Como, you will find highly qualified staff in the sector, state-of-the-art machinery and expert service that guides each client from the initial design and brain-storming phase through to production start-up and delivery of finished products.
We actively operate in different industry sectors: from furniture and lighting to biomedical and industrial, beauty, fitness and so on. The main target for our company has always been quality, which we offer day after day by means of precise and reliable workmanship.
Count on us for the production of rigid or flexible polyurethane components!
Our services
1
Defining requirements
Consulting, identifying needs and information gathering are the first important steps in the development of a new idea or project. This makes it possible to structure the project and its requirements and then provide in-depth analysis of the various options with a feasibility study.
2
Feasibility study
Through a detailed and precise assessment, one or more customised solutions and their possible weaknesses are identified, which must be resolved before any type of product is created. The feasibility study allows the assessment of technical solutions for the development of the project and is the starting point for providing the client with an accurate quote.
3
3D Design
Thanks to 3D modelling, we are able to guarantee a faster turnaround in generating the client’s executive project, taking care of both the entire project design phase and any adaptations in the required polyurethane moulding shapes according to the client’s needs.
4
Structural analysis
Structural analysis, also known as FEM analysis, makes it possible to produce an advance simulation of the design’s structural behaviour (cracks, bending) according to its use or function, making it easier to produce safe designs. FEM also makes it possible to optimise product thickness, volume and weight .
5
Prototype creation
We make prototypes that enable the client to see and test the design before the moulds are made.

The production process
Mould production
We make resin and aluminium moulds, offering innovative solutions and a professional consulting and support service.
Moulding and Deburring
Linea ar carries out the moulding and finishing of polyurethane products according to client orders, making them available and ready for use.
Finishing treatments
On request, Linea ar offers clients product finishing services, be it painting or upholstery in fabric or leather, through selected suppliers.
Quality control
At the end of each process, we carry out thorough Quality Control procedures to ensure that the components comply with the client’s requirements.
Materials
Rigid structural polyurethane
A versatile polymer with impressive technical features, offering flexibility both in the creation of unique shapes and sizes and lending itself to various types of finishes.
Technical data
Density: 400-650 Kg/mc
“Extraordinary freedom of design with a high-performance, premium material“
Compact polyurethane (CSP)
Rigid compact polyurethane is a polymer with high mechanical performance.It is particularly suitable in cases where high mechanical strength and/or minimal thickness are required.
Technical data
Density: 850-1.100 Kg/mc
“A high-strength material ideal for minimal thickness and superior mechanical properties“
Flexible polyurethane (MDI)
A soft and comfortable polyurethane foam. Its soft and comfortable characteristics make it ideal for the production of cushions and seats with great ergonomic designs, thanks to the moulds.
Technical data
Density: 60-80 Kg/mc
“The best flexible polyurethane on the market. It has excellent comfort and load-bearing characteristics”
