We are a leading manufacturer of molded, extruded, and fabricated rubber parts for the food, beverage and dairy industries and their suppliers. Whether you need production of existing components, prototypes for research and development or replacement items for hard-to-find or obsolete applications, we have the capabilities and expertise to supply quality rubber parts on time and within budget.
Food and dairy applications and parts
Food, beverage and dairy processing environments include intense pressures, extreme temperatures, unique process media and unforgiving chemicals. Rubber components must withstand a diverse range of challenges and ensure unwanted contaminants are not released into the process line.
Minor Rubber can develop Food & Drug Administration-certified rubber parts to help the food and beverage processing industry generate sanitary and hygienic products safe for consumption. Using only high-quality materials, our sanitary and dairy processing rubber parts form a secure barrier between surfaces to prevent leakage and contamination. They are also less likely to adhere to equipment fittings.
With an extensive inventory of stock rubber parts, expedited delivery is available. We also offer turnkey Original Equipment Manufacture services and can private label products for fabrication kits or retail sale.
Common items we manufacture include:
- Food processing gaskets
- Water filtration gaskets
- Tubing and seals
- Grommets
- Bumpers
- Extruded profiles
