We offer a comprehensive range of food-approved materials to suit diverse processing environments:
- EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) – resistance to hot water, steam, and cleaning chemicals, ideal for CIP/SIP systems
- Silicone (VMQ) – exceptional thermal stability and flexibility across a wide temperature range, suitable for high and low-temperature applications
- NBR (Nitrile Rubber) – good resistance to oils and fats, commonly used in food processing involving greasy media
- FKM (Fluoroelastomer) – superior chemical resistance and high-temperature performance for aggressive processing environments
- PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) – non-stick surface with outstanding chemical inertness and ultra-low contamination risk
All materials are carefully selected to ensure minimal extractables, low odor, and compliance with food contact regulations.
Compliance & Certifications
Our food-grade gaskets are manufactured in accordance with internationally recognized standards and can be supplied with full material traceability and certification, including:
- FDA 21 CFR 177 – compliance for food contact materials in the United States
- LFGB – Lebensmittel -Bedarfsgegenstände -und Futtermittelgesetzbuch LFGB is a German regulatory testing requirement used to verify that materials are safe for contact with food.
- EC 1935/2004 – European framework regulation for materials in contact with food
- EU 10/2011 – specific migration limits for plastic materials
Additional certifications, such as 3-A Sanitary Standards and BfR recommendations are available upon request.
