Is your workflow stalling?
In the food industry, seamless production processes are essential.
An unexpected failure of a kneading machine, a stopped mixer, or a leaking rotary joint can have serious consequences. Often, a faulty seal is the root cause of such issues, triggering a chain reaction of additional problems.
Downtime
Unplanned downtimes jeopardize delivery schedules and cause high costs
Failures
Failures consume valuable time and resources.
Efficiency
Operational efficiency is compromised.
Leaks
Leaks risk violating strict hygiene standards, affecting product quality and customer trust.
We Keep Your Production Moving
Hygienic Materials
Our seals are made from certified elastomers specifically designed for food industry applications. They meet the highest safety and quality standards, including FDA, EC 1935, and NSF 51 certification (in preparation).
Hygienic Design
VR Seals are optimized for the strict hygiene requirements of food production. Their easy-to-clean design ensures maximum product safety and compliance with industry regulations.
IP 69K Protection
Engineered to meet IP 69K requirements, our seals offer superior protection with minimal undercuts, making them ideal for demanding hygiene applications.
Durability & Efficiency
Reduce friction by up to 70% with VR Seals. This means less wear, lower energy costs, and extended maintenance intervals – keeping your production efficient and cost-effective.
Sustainability & Circular Economy
Sustainability is at the core of our design philosophy. Our seals are made with recyclable materials and reusable components, featuring no chemical bonding between metal and rubber. This allows for easy material separation and recycling, aligning with circular economy principles.

Modern food processing machines
VR seals are used in machines for food production, especially when conventional rotary shaft seals cause too much friction, smooth surfaces are required or the service life of the current seal is insufficient. Thanks to modern materials, a wide range of applications can be realized.

Questions and answers
The needs of each company and each machine are different, so prices can vary greatly depending on the work involved. It is therefore highly recommended that you arrange a non-binding consultation.
Our company is based in the district of Heinsberg.
We advise the customer on technical queries. If our product is suitable, we will prepare a non-binding offer and, if it is a standard seal, provide a sample.
Commercial inquiries are processed according to the usual processes. The fact that we can produce in very small quantities means that our customers only have to accept low minimum order quantities.
Simply read the size from the seal, take it from the parts list or measure it and send an e-mail to [email protected]. You will receive an offer within 24 hours.
