Our knowledgeable team is experienced in sourcing essential parts, needed for equipment in the food and beverage sector.
An example of this is with breweries and bottling companies, where we can provide commonly used seals such as u-rings, O-rings, umbrella seals and cup seals, all manufactured in Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approved materials.
A recent case was for a major company that produces cider and beer.
The Problem
The company were looking for replacement seals for their bottling machine. The machines use a fobbing method, which controls the foaming of the beer and cider as it fills the bottles.
As well as u-rings, O-rings and cup seals, the machine uses an umbrella seal on the bottle, which is instrumental in deflecting the liquid as it goes into the bottle and prevents it from frothing.
