"In food production and packaging, we know you are under scrutiny when it comes to the materials you use in your equipment. That's why we provide a range of FDA-approved rubber so you can find the solution you need while meeting industry regulations.

This includes:
⭐️EPDM capable of withstanding the mechanical, temperature and chemical pressures of repeated CIP cycles.

⭐️Nitrile used in food processiing equipment that provides reliable sealing performance.

⭐️Silicone that's medically approved for use in applications requiring a high degree of flexibility and purity.

We manufacture custom seals, mouldings, extrusions, gaskets – specifically designed for these environments.

A failed container door seal doesn't announce itself. It shows up as a mould claim, a moisture-damaged pallet, or a failed compliance audit three months later.

By then, the cost of the wrong seal's already been paid.

We've written up how to specify one properly – EPDM vs Neoprene, which profile fits which door, and why corners are where most seals actually fail.

Bottle grippers, also known as rubber jaws, are essential for keeping bottles secure during one of the most critical stages of the bottling process.

During automated rinsing, bottles are lifted, inverted, cleaned and returned to the line. Without the right grip, this process risks slippage, damage and costly disruption.

At Walker Rubber, our compression moulded rubber grippers are bonded to stainless steel base plates – combining strength with a high-friction surface for reliable, repeat performance.

Designed using durable, FDA-approved nitrile, they help to:
✔️ Securely grip bottles during inversion
✔️ Reduce slippage throughout rotation
✔️ Protect bottle surfaces from damage
✔️ Improve overall machine reliability

Because when it comes to high-speed production, control and consistency are everything.

The term “food grade” is bounded about when talking about rubber used for food and drink production and packaging applications. But what does it actually mean?

"Food grade" is a description of a compound that meets food-contact requirements. In effect, t certifies that the rubber compound contains no harmful extractables, won’t cause taste or odour transfer, and is stable under repeated cleaning and heat.

There's no single global standard:

🇺🇸In the US it's FDA 21 CFR 177.2600.
🇬🇧🇪🇺In the UK and EU there's no direct rubber equivalent – compliance sits under the general EC 1935/2004 framework, backed by national guidance.

⚠️ Always seek guidance from your supplier to ensure the rubber compound you are buying is safe for food contact.

If a fragment of gasket breaks off mid-process, you need to know before it reaches a customer.

Metal detectable rubber is compounded so fragments – even small ones – trigger the metal detectors most food factories already run. No new equipment, no separate system. It's usually a distinct colour too, so it's visible as well as detectable.

Used in seals, gaskets and grommets in direct food contact.
