Industrial (High Technology Processing Industries)

High Technology Processing Industries

RD Rubber Technology Corporation is a leading supplier of custom rubber molding for industrial and high technology processing industries. Our rubber and silicone manufacturing capabilities serve a variety of industries, such as the food processing, dairy processing, instrumentation, and semiconductor markets.

Food Processing

Food Processing

Specialty elastomers are commonly utilized in beverage and food processing equipment for various types of seals. These seals must resist the chemical and thermal conditions in these demanding environments without releasing any unwanted contaminants.

Food-grade silicone rubber, also called FDA silicone rubber, is a highly versatile material that is safe to use in the food and beverage industry. To protect food safety, materials used to produce, store, and transport food must be safe and compliant with FDA guidelines.

Key Advantages of Food-Grade Silicone Rubber

FDA silicone rubber is odorless and non-toxic. This ensures that food and drinks are safe to consume if they come into contact with these silicone materials. Silicone can withstand extreme temperatures, both high and low.

The material is also resilient to other environmental factors, such as UV, ozone, and general wear. Silicone is highly elastic and does not degrade quickly, so silicone rubber gaskets have a long-life span. The gaskets naturally repel water, making them an excellent sealant. Food-grade silicone is easy to wash after use, allowing it to remain sanitary. 

Key Uses of FDA Silicone

FDA seals are widely used throughout food and beverage manufacturing, including processing and packaging. Given that silicone is a non-reactive material, it is incredibly useful for preventing food contamination. 

Dairy Processing

Dairy Processing

Dairy manufacturing comprises multiple processes, from cheese processing to milk transfer. RD Rubber Technology Corporation manufactures custom silicone and rubber components for challenging processing environments involving intense pressures, extreme temperatures, caustic chemicals, and unique media, which can make contaminant-free dairy processing difficult. Our custom-manufactured rubber components can withstand these harsh environments while ensuring that contaminants are kept away from the process line. We only use high-quality materials to keep your products safe.

Some of our products for the dairy industry include:

  • Seals
  • Grommets
  • Gaskets

Instrumentation

Instrumentation

RD Rubber is a leading provider of precision rubber seals, gaskets, and moldings for the electronics and instrumentation industries. We take into account the unique environmental application challenges that seals, gaskets, grommets, and other custom molded rubber components may encounter. Instrumentation environments are demanding and require high-quality standards.  To ensure the best quality and performance, we manufacture custom components from high-performance materials including silicone, nitrile, EPDM, and Viton that meet our customer’s demanding requirements.
