White Food Quality Nitrile Rubber Sheeting

Nitrile Rubber Sheeting - White Food Quality

White food grade nitrile rubber sheeting (NBR) is crafted from a premium synthetic blend of butadiene and acrylonitrile. It delivers robust mechanical performance and outstanding resistance to vegetable oils, animal fats, fish oils, and greases, making it an ideal choice for food contact and pharmaceutical environments. This elastomer offers enhanced elongation at break, tensile strength, and elevated temperature resistance compared to standard nitrile rubber sheets thanks to its superior compound formulation.

We also supply blue metal detectable nitrile to minimise contamination risks, as well as blue food quality nitrile for applications requiring a more visible colour.

Our white food quality nitrile rubber sheeting is available in rolls, precision cut using CNC technology into gaskets and custom shapes, or fabricated into sleeves. For enquiries, please contact us directly.

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