Medical and Food Grade Rubber

TRP Polymer Solutions understands the critical nature of specifying suitable components and materials for the food and medical industries, which need to comply with the strictest hygiene standards. That is why we have developed a range of specialised food grade rubber products and medical grade rubber products that have been formulated specifically for the rigorous demands of the food and medical sectors.

USP class VI medical grade rubber products

Our specially formulated TRPlast™ FFKM materials can provide a safe and durable solution for mixing, pumping, sampling and dispensing equipment. For medical applications in particular, our TRPlast 643 USP class VI medical grade rubber is often the preferred material. That is because TRP Polymer Solutions’ USP class VI rubber products are trusted to perform to the highest standards in applications where there is no margin for error.
