EPDM Rubber Sheeting - WRAS / WRc Approved

WRAS / WRc approved EPDM rubber sheeting is designed for safe contact with potable water up to +23°C, making it ideal for applications involving water intended for human consumption. This material delivers outstanding resistance to weathering, ozone, ageing and various chemicals, complying fully with BS 6920-1:2000 and BS 6920-1:2014 standards.

Widely utilised by water authorities, WRAS / WRc EPDM sheeting serves as a reliable lining for potable water systems or as gaskets in outdoor settings, thanks to its impermeable elastomer surface. The standard finish features a cloth impression on both sides. We supply this product in rolls or precision-cut pieces, with gasket fabrication available.
