Sealing solutions for the chemical industry
The chemical industry deals with a wide variety of substances, facilities, and processes, each demanding specific requirements for seals and gaskets. Therefore, it is absolutely essential to ensure the best possible sealing of all machinery and equipment at all times.
Given the stringent demands of various factors, tailor-made sealing solutions are necessary. These must adhere to the FDA’s (Food and Drug Administration) rigorous standards and require specific certifications.
Kofler - Dichtungen provides your company with standard seals, specialized seals, and custom-designed seals and gaskets. This allows us to supply the appropriate seal for any area of application, thereby enhancing your company's process optimization.
Chemical Resistance in Focus
Seals in the chemical industry must be equipped for various conditions of use. Chemical resistance to high temperatures and demanding process media is a top priority.
In addition, the seals must withstand complex and demanding cleaning practices, such as CIP or SIP. Be it temperature resistance or chemical resistance, the sealing technology from Kofler - Dichtungen always has resilience in focus.

Interesting Facts from Sealing Technology
Sealing Materials, and Elastomers: An Overview
Elastomers, as sealing materials, encompass various substances for specified applications in seal engineering. Elastomers are dimensionally stable and elastically deformable plastics. A prime example is rubber bands. While they maintain their shape, they also possess elastic characteristics and tensile stress due to an entropic effect (entropy elasticity). Elastomers are cross-linked through covalent bonds between molecule chains (macromolecules), similar to thermosetting plastics. This rubber-like elasticity occurs as the tangled polymer chains respond to tensile stress by stretching or disentangling.
