Typical Industries
Pharmaceutical
The pharmaceutical industry includes the manufacture, extraction, processing, purification, and packaging of chemical materials to be used as medication for humans or animals. Pharmaceutical manufacturing is divided into two major stages. The first stage, which is typically referred to as primary processing or manufacture, is the production of the active ingredient or drug. The second stage, secondary processing, is the conversion of the active drugs into products suitable for administration.
Throughout each and every stage the importance of contamination elimination cannot be overemphasised and it is here where Vulcan Seals offer quality products and fit for purpose.
FEP/PFA Encapsulated 'O'-Rings and Seals
Vulcan Seals FEP/PFA Encapsulated 'O'-Rings offer far superior performance to solid PTFE 'O'-Rings that routinely suffer from ’Compression Set’ & ‘Coldflow’. Near universal capabilities at a fraction of the cost of Perfluoroelastomer alternatives and a one material replacement to the various common elastomeric 'O'-Rings.
We have the capacity to produce virtually any cross-section and diameter size or shape of seals, backed by a Stock Guarantee on the most common items and a short lead time on the rest. Carefully monitored production and multiple levels of electronic inspection ensure high product quality and reliability.
