Abstract
A transportable, sealable container, for example a Standard Mechanical Interface (or SMIF) pod, including a box and box door. The box has a first sealing surface and the box door has a second sealing surface. A liner, preferably stainless steel, is attached to the inside surface of the box door. An elastomer sealing material is integrally molded to the liner. The sealing material forms a first seal with the first sealing surface and a second seal with the second sealing surface when the box door is moved in a sealing position with respect to the box.
