Pharmaceutical Grade Rubbers
Certain gasket materials are FDA approved and as such can be supplied as pharmaceutical grade materials for use in the medical industry. Material types such as platinum cured silicone rubber, PTFE blended non-asbestos fibre (Sigma, Garlock and Topchem) and expanded/solid PTFE sheets are all materials that can be supplied with FDA approvals.
These materials are extremely stable and inert, taint/taste free and have minimal microbial growth. As such, these materials are typically very good at preventing product contamination.
