Chemical Transportation

TRP Polymer Solutions produce resilient seals developed for the road, rail and maritime chemical transportation industries.

Components for road, rail and maritime chemical transport at TRP

The transportation of chemicals requires durable and chemical-resistant rubber components. As designers and manufacturers of custom rubber mouldings for the road, rail and chemical transportation industries, our technologists work in close collaboration with customers to develop high-quality technical solutions.

What chemical transport components does TRP supply?

Supporting the need for the global distribution of chemicals and fluid transfer from storage tankers into bulk containers and IBCs, we have developed elastomer materials suited for multi trip use with a wide range of chemicals. 

The diversity of substances being transported requires materials to withstand a wide range of chemicals. For the best possible chemical resistance, we specify Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) or PTFE bonded seals, with (Fluoroelastomer) FKM seals also widely used. 

The type of rubber components for these applications include:

  • Man lid and access hatch seals 
  • Seals for discharge valves
  • Seals for couplings
  • Pump diaphragms
  • O-rings
