EMI Shielding & Form-In-Place Gasketing for Regulated Device Enclosures
Protect your electronic enclosures from EMI, RFI, and ESD — with proven solutions trusted by engineers in medical, military, aerospace, and industrial applications.
Small Devices, Big Consequences
Today’s enclosures are smaller, more complex — and more exposed to interference. EMI, RFI, and ESD threats can disrupt performance and cause critical systems to fail. If your shielding solution isn’t up to spec, everything else is at risk.
When Compliance Isn’t Optional
From FDA audits to MIL-STD testing, your enclosure must meet strict performance standards. A flawed coating or gasket can lead to failed tests, delayed launches, and unexpected costs. In high-stakes industries, you don’t get second chances.
Built for Precision. Backed by Experience.
That’s why engineers turn to VTI. Our VAETEC® aluminum coating and Form-In-Place (FIP) gasketing provide consistent, application-specific protection for electronic enclosures — whether you’re prototyping a new design or preparing for production. We offer fast-turn samples, technical support, and the attention to detail your project demands.
Our EMI & Gasket Solutions
VAETEC® Aluminum Coating
Our proprietary VAETEC® process deposits a thin, uniform layer of 99.9% pure aluminum via vacuum metallization (PVD). It’s ideal for plastic enclosures in handheld or portable devices where weight matters — and it meets the shielding requirements your clients demand.
- UL Recognized (select plastic resins)
- Compatible with PC/ABS, ABS, PC, PEEK, polypropylene – along with other resins
- Supports selective masking and passivation
- Clean, repeatable shielding for mission-critical electronics
Form-In-Place Gasketing (FIP)
Our robotically applied FIP gaskets seal out EMI, moisture, and dust with precision. We offer both conductive and non-conductive silicones, moisture- or thermal-cured, tailored to your materials and application.
- Works on plastic and metal components
- Supports vertical, sloped, and flat surfaces
- Material options from top manufacturers: Momentive, Dow, Parker Chomerics, Laird
- Fillers include Silver/Nickel, Silver/Graphite, Silver/Aluminum, and more

FAQs About EMI Shielding & Gasketing
What is the best protection against EMI?
The most effective protection against EMI is a properly designed shielding solution using conductive materials such as aluminum, conductive coatings, or gaskets. Our VAETEC® aluminum coating and conductive Form-In-Place gaskets offer repeatable, application-specific protection trusted in critical industries.
How do you shield against EMI?
Shielding against EMI involves creating a conductive barrier between a sensitive component and external interference. This can be done with vacuum-deposited aluminum coatings or conductive silicone gaskets, depending on the device design and material.
What are the solutions to EMI?
Solutions include aluminum coating (like our VAETEC® process), metal enclosures, conductive gaskets, and PCB-level design practices. We focus on enclosures — helping OEMs shield plastic and metal parts from EMI, RFI, and ESD.
What is the best material to block EMI?
Materials like aluminum, copper, and silver-filled silicones are commonly used. Our solutions include 99.9% pure aluminum and gaskets filled with silver/nickel, silver/aluminum, or silver/graphite for optimized shielding performance.
What material blocks EMF?
EMF (electromagnetic fields) can be blocked or redirected using conductive metals or specialized shielding materials. For enclosures, this typically means a metalized coating or conductive gasket that creates a secure, grounded shield around electronics.
