What is DIN 7716?

The DIN 7716 standard provides guidelines for the storage, cleaning, and maintenance of rubber products. Improper storage may cause physical deterioration such as hardening, cracking, deformation, or softening of elastomer materials.

  • Storage area: clean, dry, cool, and moderately ventilated. Avoid direct sunlight.

  • Temperature: between +5°C and +25°C. Keep away from heat sources.

  • Humidity: below 65%. Avoid extreme moisture or dryness.

  • Light: prevent exposure to UV and strong artificial lighting. Use opaque packaging or red/orange curtains in storage rooms.

  • Oxygen and ozone: avoid exposure to ozone and airflow. Seal in airtight containers.

  • Deformation: store without tension or pressure. Avoid contact with metals or materials containing softeners.

  • Chemical exposure: keep away from fuels, oils, solvents, disinfectants and other harmful chemicals.

Maximum shelf life of rubber products

  • NR, SBR: 5 years (+2 years)
