Designed for various applications requiring non-toxic and hygienic materials, this versatile silicone sponge strip is the ideal choice for industries and projects where cleanliness and safety cannot be compromised.
What is an EMS15 FDA Sponge Strip?
An EMS15 FDA Sponge Strip is a flexible, lightweight material made from food-grade silicone. Specifically designed to meet FDA (Food and Drug Administration) standards, it ensures the strip is safe for direct or indirect contact with food and beverages. The absence of adhesive backing makes it a preferred choice for applications where adhesives might interfere with performance, cleanliness, or compatibility.
Key Features
-
Food-Grade Compliance
Certified to meet FDA standards, this silicone sponge strip is free from harmful substances, making it ideal for use in food processing, pharmaceutical, and cleanroom environments. -
Non-Adhesive Design
Without adhesive backing, the strip provides flexibility in application, ensuring it can be easily repositioned, removed, or secured using custom methods like mechanical fasteners. -
Excellent Durability
Resistant to wear, tear, and environmental factors such as UV rays, ozone, and moisture, this strip guarantees long-lasting performance even in challenging conditions. -
Thermal Stability
Capable of withstanding a wide temperature range, the FDA sponge strip performs reliably in hot and cold environments, making it suitable for industrial, commercial, and home use. -
