Where condensation is a problem, Gore has solutions

Find out how more effective condensation reduction — in headlamps and other exterior lighting — can save you time, money and frustration:

Cloudy, foggy, streaky headlamps are a negative for your quality brand image, and a huge source of frustration for customers who expect better.  Because even when a warranty covers the cost, your customer still has to invest time and effort to deal with what they see as “your quality problem.”

Exterior lighting design is as much about aesthetics as it is about function. And the interior lamp design is just as critical to ensure fast condensation clearing. Attempting to limit condensation with devices like caps or long tubes can limit design freedom, compromise aesthetics, and stifle styling innovation. (Yet still not provide effective condensation clearing.)

enhance design flexibility iconGore’s diverse portfolio of product solutions can offer you more design options, and more flexibility when you need to balance performance and styling.

Our advanced venting technologies can improve moisture management in your headlamps, rear lamps, fog and accessory lamps — basically anywhere condensation threatens your automotive exterior lighting.

Innovative solutions

Gore invented the industry’s first vent that reduced condensation, and our current portfolio of all-membrane adhesive vents reflects continuing innovations with our newest headlamp vent designed to enable faster clearing and our smallest-footprint vents for space-limited exterior accessory lighting.
