Sorbothane’s Shock Absorption - Egg Survives Drop Thanks to Polymer Case

This video shows Design World technical and editorial staff examining the unique properties of Sorbothane®. They test the impact protection of Sorbothane® by dropping a raw egg, enclosed in a Sorbothane® case from the ceiling in their converted warehouse offices. Viscoelastic Sorbothane® moves the potentially damaging shock away from the point of impact thus protecting the raw egg. Based in Kent, Ohio for over 34 years, Sorbothane, Inc. manufactures Sorbothane® – a proprietary material that's a highly damped, polymeric solid that flows like a liquid.

All Sorbothane® custom components and standard products are proudly made in the USA.
