White food-quality natural rubber sheeting (NR/SBR) is a high-performance elastomer that delivers exceptional tensile strength, elongation at break, and abrasion resistance. It is ideal for food processing, pharmaceutical, and hygienic transfer applications. Its mechanical advantages over synthetic alternatives make it a reliable material for dynamic applications such as gaskets, seals, and sleeves.
Formulated for compatibility with alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, and organic acids, this rubber sheet is suited for use in both wet and dry environments. While it is not recommended for contact with strong acids, greases, oils, ozone, or hydrocarbons, it performs well in most food-grade applications.
