Why choose our sealing solutions in biopharmaceutical processing

In a biopharmaceutical manufacturing setting, there are numerous factors to consider. Though seals might be a small component in a vast and intricate process, selecting the right material, tailored to the specific application, and pairing it with the proper installation procedure can yield significant advantages:

• Reduced gasket replacement frequency
• Extended periods between maintenance, lowering maintenance costs
• Reduced downtime, increased uptime
• Greater return on investment
• Confidence in system integrity
• No need to re-torque due to low compression set material
• Increased productivity
• Reduced risk of leakage
• No need for re-torquing
• Reduced effort in investigating non-compliance and failure
• The ability to Clean-in-Place (CIP)
• Reduced potential for contamination
