By industry

Industries we focus on

Where custom seals are used in each industry, what they have to cope with, and the seal types involved.

Food & beverage application

Food & beverage

Food and beverage equipment needs food-contact compliant materials, and many plants also require seals that metal and X-ray detectors can find.

Typical applications

Food & beverage processing equipmentHygienic applicationsReplacement of existing seals

Challenges we solve

  • FDA-compliant materials
  • Hot water & steam cleaning
  • Foreign-body detection

Seal types

FDA gradesDetectable grades
Mining application

Mining

Mining equipment needs robust seals for a wide range of demanding applications and adverse working conditions, often built to customer-specific requirements.
