Product Description
Latex rubber is heavily used in the food and catering industry. Our latex rubber sheeting is manufactured to the highest specification, following strict FDA regulations to ensure it meets standards for the food industry and does not contain any prohibited additives or pigments. It is made using only the highest grade natural latex with low protein and impurity levels.
It is often used in baking applications to prevent food sticking to equipment or in lining of equipment to prevent abrasion, and plays a key role in many processes as it is non-stick with high strength, elasticity and abrasion resistance characteristics.
Our latex sheeting also meets the German regulation BGVV and USA FDA CRF 21 Section 177:2600 ‘Rubber Articles for repeated use in contact with foodstuffs’.
It is available in a range of widths and thicknesses in three colours: natural, white, and blue.
