EPDM cellular rubber sheets RG 130 kg/m³ FDA conform
CR/NBR cellular rubber sheets RG 160 kg/m³ Certificate EN 45545
EPDM sealing tapes

Cellular rubber made of CR/EPDM for sealing and insulation, damping and shock absorption.

This cellular rubber made of an EPDM FDA-compliant mixture with a volume weight of 130 kg/m³ is a closed-cell, soft-elastic cellular rubber which is absolutely impermeable to air and water. This adaptable material is particularly used as a sealing material, for soft storage and damping. We offer the EPDM FDA-compliant cellular rubber in standard sheet format in various thicknesses or individually tailored to customer requirements. Order the desired cellular rubber in a few clicks or contact us if you have any further questions.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Cellular rubber and sponge rubber are often confused, the difference is due to the different manufacturing processes in the material properties. Sponge rubber has open cells and a dense outer skin. Due to the outer skin, sponge rubber is particularly suitable for applications involving increased mechanical stress and abrasion. However, if the outer skin is damaged by the foam rubber, it can soak up water. Cellular rubber has no outer skin, but cellular rubber has closed cells. Cellular rubber is therefore always water and airtight. Sponge rubber or cellular rubber are foamed rubber qualities (EPDM, SBR, CR, NBR) and can adapt very well to the substrate, which is why they are mainly used for seals

A cellular rubber seals best at a compression of 30% to 50%. Cellular rubber should not be compressed above 50%, as compression above 50% could damage the structure and this can lead to reduced elastic recovery.

The closed cell foams have a different cell structure than open cell foams. In the closed cell foams, each cell is a complete closed sphere containing air in each cell. In contrast to open-cell foams, closed-cell foams do not allow water, moisture and dust to penetrate the cell structure. The closed-cell foam is ideal for sealing, wherever dust and water must be kept away.

The FDA (Food and Drug Administration), is an American supervisory authority, which is responsible for the control of all goods placed on the market in the USA. This includes all imports into the USA, therefore the regulations of the FDA authority are also important for European manufacturers. These regulations are binding for exporters to the USA. The FDA sets extremely strict requirements in the food sector where a large number of rubber and plastic products are used and as a result come into contact with food or drinking water. The materials must not release any ingredients into the food. As a result, all plastics that come into contact with food should be FDA-compliant.

Food grade rubber/elastomer is safe to use with food and meets the requirements of the FDA, Food Standards Agency. Food grade elastomer is non-toxic and does not discolor or alter the food with which it comes into contact. Food grade rubber qualities can be used safely in the production of food and beverages.

The foam standard boards are delivered as untrimmed raw boards. The ordered useful dimensions are guaranteed, protruding material (foam, fleece, SK-foil ecc.) is but possible."

According to your specifications, we can produce almost all geometries on our wide range of processing options such as punching, water jet cutting, contour cutting, shape cutting or cutting plotter. Which process is best suited for the desired foam cutting depends on the foam used as well as the required quality and quantity.
