Oviteippien

Oviteippien, often translated as "door tapes" or "door seals," are a category of specialized adhesive strips designed for application on the edges of doors. Their primary function is to enhance insulation, reduce drafts, and minimize noise transmission. These tapes are typically made from flexible materials such as rubber, foam, or silicone, chosen for their compressibility and weather-resistant properties.

The installation of oviteippien is a common method to improve energy efficiency in buildings. By creating a tight seal when the door is closed, they prevent conditioned air from escaping and unconditioned air from entering. This can lead to significant savings on heating and cooling costs. Beyond insulation, these seals also serve as a barrier against dust, insects, and moisture, contributing to a cleaner and more comfortable indoor environment.

Oviteippien come in various profiles and thicknesses to accommodate different types of doors and frames, as well as varying degrees of gaps. Some are designed for the perimeter of the door leaf itself, while others are applied to the door frame. The adhesive backing ensures a secure and long-lasting fit, though replacement may be necessary over time due to wear and tear. Their unobtrusive nature makes them a practical and cost-effective solution for both residential and commercial applications.
