Harltex Achieve WRAS Certification
We are proud to announce that our range of clean EPDM rubber materials have officially achieved WRAS (Water Regulations Approval Scheme) certification. This prestigious approval confirms that Harltex’s EPDM products meet the rigorous requirements for use in the UK’s potable water systems. This includes compliance with Regulation 4 of the UK Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations.
The newly certified EPW material family is now approved for use in applications involving water temperatures up to 65°C. Harltex are now offering customers a dependable solution for their sealing and fluid handling needs. With zero odour or flavour detection and exceptional microbial resistance, our new range is ready to meet any international standards — a reliable solution for all markets, anywhere in the world.
With official certification secured, Harltex is now positioned to expand its market reach and provide certified rubber materials to a broader range of customers. This benefits both parties, whilst gaining additional approvals for European and global markets.
