What is EPDM?

“EPDM” stands for Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, which is a synthetic rubber compound known for its excellent weather resistance, electrical insulation properties, and resistance to heat, ozone, and a wide range of chemicals. EPDM is commonly used in various industries for applications that require good sealing, insulation, and durability.
