Food and beverage processing industries represent some of the most rigorous operating environments for sealing components. Seals in these applications are frequently faced with temperature and pressure extremes, with no margin for error when it comes to long-term hygienic sealing performance.

From a sealing engineer’s point of view, the implementation of a hygienic seal begins with the right choice of material. An effective food industry sealing material needs to demonstrate a broad chemical compatibility profile, compatible with virtually all process media and able to withstand cleaning regimes and sterilization practices including solvents, steam and amines.

To ensure food safety, gasket manufacturers provide specialized food-grade gaskets such as Tri-Clamp or sanitary gaskets as per DIN 11851.

Seals and gaskets may seem like an afterthought in the grand scheme of chemical processing equipment, but if you’ve ever been faced with unexpected — and costly — downtime due to a seal or gasket failure, you know these products are as crucial to the process as their larger-scale counterparts. As the chemical process industries continue to demand better chemical, pressure and temperature compatibility, tighter emission control and higher reliability from their seals and gaskets, new solutions are being explored.

In the complex chemical process, it is important to understand the specific application requirements, which include not only temperatures and pressures, but many other factors including dimensional tolerances. Withstanding high pressure is often a matter of tolerancing so that the maximum gap to be sealed can be well understood at the design stage.

The pharmaceutical industry is quite similar to many other process and production industries in food industry - in terms of the plant and machinery used. Similarly, the processes employed to cultivate, refine and blend pharmaceutical ingredients and end products are widely used in other industries.

The one thing, that only appears in this industry is single use systems (SUS), where not only the gasket is changed, but all system’s parts. This method of manufacturing is used to produce vaccines.

When looking at sealing applications and considering material suitability for the process conditions, the process — size, temperature, application, media, pressure and speed — is a good starting point on the path to providing an appropriate sealing solution, but it is not enough for engineering calculations.

Pharmaceutical companies and related fine chemical industries develop, manufacture and supply worldwide specialty chemicals, drug intermediates, and final active pharma ingredients.

Seals at power plants are often exposed to highly fluctuating thermal and mechanical stress, independent of whether it is a nuclear or a fossil-fueled power plant. Thermal power stations generate high pressure (>100bar) and high temperature (>320°C) steam. Our proprietary and patented industry-leading gasket technology meet the stringent demands of the power industry by providing containment, safety, and durability.

Steam leaks are hazardous and very costly. The higher the temperature and pressure it is becoming more and more dangerous. A ruptured pipe or leaking flange gasket is a serious problem with the potential to cause bodily harm and serious financial risk.

No plant operator wants a leak of toxic or hazardous material that can harm humans and the environment. Using the right types of gaskets with controlled installation procedure will help to achieve a reliable seal to prevent the leak from the flange joints.

The requirements for sealing applications in the power industry are more demanding than ever – the continuously growing demand for energy worldwide requires power generation equipment need to perform at a higher load and to it more efficiently. We manufacture and supply high performance custom gasket and sealing solutions. Our gasket offers excellent performance which will boosts service life of power generation equipment as well as maintains efficiency.
