Sponge Rubber

Sponge rubber is a go-to choice for industries seeking a material that offers a combination of flexibility, resilience, and cushioning properties. This type of rubber is produced through specialized manufacturing processes that create either a closed-cell or open-cell structure, depending on the intended application. With excellent compression set resistance, sponge rubber maintains its shape and functionality even under prolonged pressure, making it ideal for critical custom foam gasket solutions.

Sponge rubber is available in a range of densities and formulations, including EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) sponge rubber and silicone sponge rubber, to meet specific performance needs. Whether you need it for sealing, insulation, or impact absorption, sponge rubber delivers outstanding performance in demanding environments. Merryweather Foam specializes in custom sponge rubber solutions tailored to meet a variety of industrial requirements. From sponge rubber mats for insulation to gaskets and sponge rubber tubing, our team of experts ensures precision-engineered products that enhance durability and safety.
