EMKA is pleased that now, as part of their ongoing development programme, its self-adhesive gaskets have recently received certification to hygiene standard VDI 6022.

These sections also suit specialist vehicles and electrical/electronic cabinets, as well as street furniture with standard stock dimensions available from 30mm width to 80mm and from 5mm depth to 40mm in coils or strips dependent on thickness.

For custom applications, punched flat form gaskets may be offered to specific drawing shapes that are suitable for wider applications in hygiene-related areas, as well as for motor vehicles, railway carriages, and off-road trucks and machines, such as agricultural equipment and fire trucks, coaches and motor homes.

EMKA offers a bespoke custom design service; where there is a requirement for a really different profile, the EMKA team is delighted to design, develop and produce to suit specific needs.
