Leveraging years of ePTFE membrane R&D and production expertise, Spider has deeply focused on the automotive sector. We provide complete waterproof and venting solutions for various automotive parts and have become a trusted supplier to many major automakers.

In response to the rise of autonomous driving and new energy vehicles, Spider has built a dedicated professional team. We work closely with industry partners to develop high-reliability waterproof venting products that are now widely adopted by leading automotive manufacturers.

Automotive lamps (Headlamp, Rear Lamp, Fog Lamp, Turn Signal Lamp, Grille Lamp, Interior Lamp, License Plate Lamp, etc.) serve both functional and decorative purposes. Their complex designs make them prone to visible failures, with lamp fogging and insufficient brightness being the two most common issues — largely due to poor ventilation, humidity, and rapid temperature/pressure changes.

Spider Venting Solutions effectively address these challenges with reliable waterproof and breathable performance.

Key Functions:

  1. Moisture Permeability — Allows internal moisture to escape efficiently, preventing fogging and condensation.
  2. Pressure Balancing — Quickly equalizes pressure differentials to protect seals and prevent water ingress.
  3. Heat Dissipation — Promotes ventilation to avoid overheating, maintain brightness, and extend lamp life.

Spider’s Adhesive Vent Membrane and Vent Cap, made with high-performance ePTFE, deliver excellent IP67/IP68 waterproof, dustproof, and breathable properties. They significantly reduce fogging, prolong lifespan, improve lighting performance, and lower maintenance costs.

Engine Controller, Oil Pump Controller, ABS Controller, Electronic Controller, etc.

The ECU is the brain of the vehicle and plays a critical role in overall performance and safety. Similar to ordinary computers, an ECU consists of a microprocessor (CPU), memory (ROM, RAM), input/output interfaces (I/O), analog-to-digital converters (A/D), shaping circuits, drivers, and other large-scale integrated circuits. Any failure of the vehicle controller can lead to serious consequences.

For ECUs, product reliability is the highest priority, and venting products are essential. ECUs are often located near the engine, where they experience violent temperature fluctuations and generate significant heat during operation. This creates major risks:

  • Local heat concentration causing overheating and ECU failure.
  • Rapid temperature changes creating internal pressure that damages seals and allows external pollutants to enter.
  • Dust and particles penetrating the housing, reducing performance and shortening service life.

Spider Venting Solutions effectively address these challenges. They provide excellent heat dissipation to prevent excessive local temperature rise, while their superior breathable performance rapidly equalizes pressure caused by temperature changes, helping the ECU maintain reliable long-term operation.

In addition, Spider has developed high-temperature resistant venting products that maintain excellent waterproof and breathable performance even in prolonged high-temperature environments. The Snap-fit Vent can operate continuously at 150°C, while the Weldable Vent Membrane can withstand up to 250°C.

  • Moisture permeability and chemical/high-temperature resistance to prevent corrosion

Spider Venting Solutions provide reliable waterproof, dustproof, and breathable performance, helping new energy vehicle manufacturers ensure the safety and durability of critical power electronics and battery systems.

Position Sensor, Temperature and Humidity Sensor, Oxygen Sensor, etc.

Modern vehicles use over 100 types of sensors to monitor displacement, force, speed, temperature, flow, gas composition, and more. These sensors are installed throughout the vehicle — in the suspension system, interior, exterior, and engine compartment. Sensor failure can lead to serious consequences, making stable and reliable operation critical to vehicle safety and performance.

To ensure reliable sensor performance under harsh conditions, waterproof, dustproof, high-temperature resistant, and rapid pressure-equalizing capabilities are essential. High-performance waterproof venting products are therefore a key protective solution.

Different sensors have unique protection requirements:

  • Temperature and Humidity Sensors need venting products that maintain sensitivity in high-humidity and high-temperature environments.
  • Gas Sensors require careful selection of membrane materials, adhesive layers, and substrates to avoid affecting sensitivity.
  • Flow Sensors demand minimal interference with target gas flux from the venting membrane.

Spider has extensive practical experience helping customers select the most suitable breathable solutions. For example, Spider’s high-temperature resistant venting membranes combined with high-temperature adhesives ensure long-term stable operation in demanding environments. With a wide range of membrane types available, Spider can adapt to diverse sensor application scenarios.

Millimeter Wave Radar, Ultrasonic Radar, On-board Camera, Lidar, Autonomous Driving Controller, etc.

Autonomous driving hardware is mainly divided into perception, decision-making & control, and execution systems. Perception equipment — including Lidar, vehicle cameras, millimeter wave radar, ultrasonic radar, and more — serves as the “eyes” of the vehicle, providing critical environmental data.

Safety is the top priority for both consumers and automakers in autonomous driving technology. While algorithms and big data improve decision-making accuracy, the quality and reliability of raw data from sensing equipment are fundamental. Any failure or inaccuracy in perception hardware can have catastrophic consequences.

Sensing equipment often operates in complex and harsh environments. High-performance venting products are essential to improve stability and reliability. For example:

  • Millimeter Wave Radar is highly sensitive to environmental changes and must pass stringent tests (e.g., over 1000 thermal shock cycles or 1200 hours of high-temperature testing).
  • On-board Cameras require venting products that provide anti-fogging, pressure equalization, and custom designs to fit compact housings.

Spider brings rich application experience in autonomous driving systems, helping ensure the long-term reliability of these critical sensing devices through advanced waterproof and breathable solutions.

 Semiconductors

Semiconductor tools and support equipment go through fast temperature and pressure cycles. Sealed tanks, cabinets, and instrument housings trap gas or draw in moisture. That stress shows up as leaks, condensation, and unstable process fluids.

Spider ePTFE vents equalize pressure and block liquid splash. Where dissolved oxygen must be reduced in process water, degassing membranes remove DO before it reaches sensitive steps.


Photovoltaic cells and display panels (LCD, OLED) production have water quality and process media purity requirements close to the semiconductor industry to reduce defect rates and improve product consistency.

Process tools, chemical cabinets, and facility control boxes are sealed against splash and cleanroom protocol. Heat load and exhaust cycles still create pressure differentials that fatigue gaskets and pull moisture inward.

Common problems:

  • Condensation on sensors, boards, and optics
  • Seal stress from vacuum and overpressure cycles
  • Splash or cleaning liquid entering housings

What Spider protective vents do:

  1. Equalize internal and external pressure in tool and cabinet housings
  2. Block liquid and particles while allowing air to pass
  3. Help keep electronics and instruments dry during process and maintenance

Dissolved oxygen in ultrapure and process water accelerates corrosion and can disturb downstream chemistry. Degassing membranes reduce DO in water and process fluids before they enter sensitive steps.

Common problems:

  • Oxygen corrosion in piping, pumps, and fittings
  • Unstable process chemistry from residual DO
  • Higher maintenance on water and chemical loops

What Spider degassing membranes do:

  1. Remove dissolved oxygen from process and ultrapure water loops
  2. Reduce oxygen-related corrosion in metal lines and equipment
  3. Support more stable wet-process conditions

Typical uses: process water loops, chemical make-up water, support systems around wet process and display/PV auxiliary lines.

Packaging Vents
