Swiss engineering firm ROSTA AG continues to set new standards in industrial and recreational safety with its innovative elastic suspension systems. The company’s proprietary rubber technology, developed in-house by sister company COMPOUNDS AG, has become integral to equipment across multiple sectors, from heavy industry to children’s playgrounds.
In recreational applications, ROSTA’s solutions are transforming playground safety. The company’s energy-absorbing impact suspensions minimize injury risks on seesaws and swings, while torsion elastic mounts stabilize rocking toys and platforms. These components allow for natural 360-degree movement while preventing dangerous abrupt motions. The weatherproof designs withstand extreme temperatures from -40°C to 80°C, making them ideal for Canada’s variable climate.
Beyond playgrounds, ROSTA’s technology plays a crucial role in industrial settings. The AV-series vibration supports protect mining and construction equipment from damaging shocks, while elastic mounts in agricultural machinery enhance efficiency and reduce noise. In automated systems, ROSTA’s self-tensioning bases maintain optimal performance for motors up to 550 kW, improving energy efficiency.
The company’s global presence continues to expand, with subsidiaries like China’s Ludatech adapting solutions for regional markets. Ongoing research into hybrid rubber-carbon composites promises to further advance the technology’s capabilities.
