Neoprene Foam


EMCO Industrial Plastics carries Neoprene foam available in strip, sheet, roll, or custom gasket forms. Neoprene is the most commonly used foam material due to its good balance of strength, oil, water, and weather resistance. Common applications include industrial gaskets to seal water, air, dust, and other environmental items, automotive gaskets, and athletic equipment. Available in open and closed cell styles, with pre-applied single or double-sided Acrylic Adhesive backing options, and smooth or textured finishes.

Our Neoprene materials are available in thicknesses of 1/32” to 2”, including all standard iterations of inch and metric thickness measurements across this range. Continuous strips, rolls, and sheets are available in any width from 1/8” to 36”, and lengths up to 90’. In-house CNC gasket cutting, machining, and waterjet cutting capabilities promote tight tolerances, repeatable accuracy, and rapid part development across our entire Neoprene offering.
