Flame Retardant EPDM Rubber Sheeting

EPDM Rubber Sheeting - Flame Retardant

AMG Sealing offers flame retardant EPDM rubber sheeting formulated without halogens to comply with the rigorous fire safety standards BS EN 45545-2:2013 + A1:2015 and EN ISO 9239-1. This certified material is suited for railway and metro coach interiors, particularly for flooring and other applications where fire resistance is critical. It features low smoke emission and effectively restricts flame propagation during fire incidents.

Engineered with an advanced compound, this flame retardant EPDM surpasses standard EPDM grades in tensile strength, elongation at break, and temperature endurance. It also provides excellent longevity, enhanced abrasion resistance, and robust protection against ageing, ozone exposure, and weather conditions.

Available in rolls or custom-cut formats, this EPDM sheeting can be precision-cut into gaskets through our manufacturing services. For information on stock and bespoke sizes, please reach out to AMG Sealing directly.
