IRC container seals are manufactured using high quality EPDM rubber known for its superior quality and excellent features. Container seals are produced in various shapes and sizes to customer satisfaction. They are excellent resistant to heat, steam, cracking and corrosion.
Types
1. Container seal for refrigerated containers2. Container seal for non refrigerated containers
IRC has qualified technical personal that ensures the development of the container seals in a shortest lead time which conform to the various international standards e.g. ASTM, BS, DIN etc. IRC is capable in testing most of the physical property test that is required in validation of container seals produce in house.
