Foodsil Food Safe Silicone Rubber: FDA Approved Quality

The Foodsil Food Safe Silicone Rubber – AMT is a two part, platinum cure RTV silicone moulding compound. It offers high tear strength and outstanding flexibility. Making it ideal for creating durable moulds. Moreover, this silicone is FDA approved. Which ensures its safety for food related applications such as chocolate, fondant, or confectionery moulds.

In addition, Foodsil works well for rapid prototyping and casting. Great with polyurethane, epoxy, and polyester resins, as well as wax and many other materials. Because of its versatility, it serves both professional and hobbyist needs. Delivering consistent and reliable results.

However, platinum cure silicones are chemically sensitive to latex, sulfur, and certain other materials during the mould making process. Therefore, always perform a small surface test before starting if you are unsure about compatibility. By taking this precaution, you ensure that the silicone cures properly and produces high quality moulds without inhibition.

Ultimately, Foodsil Food Safe Silicone Rubber – AMT combines strength, safety, and versatility. Whether you’re working in culinary arts, product design, or creative crafts. This silicone gives you professional grade results with every project.

Pouring:

For best results, pour the Foodsil Food Safe Silicone Rubber in a thin stream to the lowest part of the mould in a single spot and allow material to flow around the model and self level. Cover the model by at least 10mm with the silicone.

The physical life of the mould depends on how you use it (materials cast, frequency etc.). Casting abrasive materials such as concrete can quickly deteriorate mould detail, while casting non-abrasive materials like wax or plaster will not affect mould detail.
