Nitrile Rubber Sheeting - Blue Food Quality

Blue food-quality nitrile rubber sheeting (NBR)  is a high-quality synthetic material designed for excellent resistance to animal fats, fish oils, greases, and vegetable oils. It’s widely used in the food, drink, and pharmaceutical sectors and meets the latest EC and FDA food-contact approvals. Its bright blue colour ensures easy visible detection for industrial applications.

This premium NBR sheet offers enhanced tensile strength, elongation at break, and improved temperature resistance compared to standard nitrile rubber grades.

We also offer blue metal-detectable nitrile to reduce contamination risks, or white food-grade nitrile for higher-temperature applications.

Nitrile rubber can be supplied in rolls or easily machined into gaskets and other applications using in-house CNC machinery.

Nitrile rubber is also known as NBR rubber, Buna-N and Perbunan.
