Rubber for the Logistics Industry
Our role in the logistics industry
The logistics industry is massive, accounting for 12% of the worlds GDP and is worth £7.95 trillion. We have supported logistics companies by supplying rubber products for many years. These include: container door seals, dampers and covered rollers as well as bespoke protection for high value and difficult to pack components and assemblies. Shipped directly from our UK manufacturing base, you can rest assured you will get our expert attention and a quick response.
Rubber applications for the logistics industry
Rubber, especially EPDM, is used in a wide variety of applications within the logistics industry, here are some of the most popular:
- Conveyor side skirting
- Window seals for converted containers
- Door seals for containers
- Non-slip rubber matting for loading bays
- Fuel resistant rubber sheeting
- Rubber impact protectors for storage facilities
- Shock dampers for distribution centres
- Covered rollers for assembly lines
Our Rubber Solutions in Logistics
Our High specification EPDM 'J' & 'H' section extrusions are widely used for container door seals. The container door seal is an integral part of a shipping container and they come in many shapes and sizes. The door seals are designed to protect the cargo that is shipped within their containers. Resistant to oil, light and ozone, our EPDM seals are the perfect choice for long-lasting, high-performance protection. In addition, we have the capability to corner mould the container door seals in-house, allowing new and replacement seals to be fitted with ease.
We also manufacture a comprehensive range of rubber impact protectors which are used to prevent damage to goods, vehicles, and infrastructure in and around loading bays and large storage facilities. Our EPDM rubber exhibits excellent structural stability, high impact resistance and has a long life compared to other types of material.

Our experience in developing rubber door seals was exemplified by a customer who made a wonderful comment reflecting our 'can do' attitude. 'You didn't just sell me a seal, you took time to understand everything about what I needed and what was important to me. The result is one very happy customer who cannot recommend you highly enough. Thank you’. We were flattered to say the least. We can promise this standard of work for every project we are involved in.
