We are delighted to announce that R&G Fluid Power Group Ltd has successfully completed the acquisition of Sealco International Ltd, a leading supplier and manufacturer of high-performance sealing solutions.
Established in 1991, Sealco International has built an outstanding reputation for providing specialist sealing expertise and technical support for some of the most demanding industrial applications. With decades of experience and extensive technical knowledge, the business has become a trusted partner to customers across a wide range of sectors requiring reliable, sealing solutions.
Operating from its headquarters in Halesowen West Midlands, together with its Scottish operation in Aberdeenshire, Sealco offers an extensive range of sealing products including PTFE seals, metal seals, O-rings, gaskets, spring-energised seals, hydraulic and pneumatic seals and bespoke engineered sealing solutions. The company is also recognised for its in-house manufacturing capabilities and rapid-response service, enabling the supply of both standard and custom-made products to meet customer requirements.
Sealco’s expertise in specialist sealing applications and strong technical support complement and enhance R&G Fluid Power Group’s existing capabilities. The acquisition further strengthens the Group’s position in the sealing and engineered solutions market, while expanding its ability to support customers with a broader range of products, services and technical expertise.
Commenting of the acquisition, Mark Williams, Managing Director of R&G Fluid Power Group stated:
Sealco International represents another fantastic acquisition for R&G Group, expanding our end market reach and strengthening our technical capability within our Seals & Gaskets Division. The opportunities for both our existing businesses and Sealco to develop a cohesive strategy across our end markets, with a stronger technical offering and a wider product range is an exciting prospect. The team at Sealco will be a huge asset to R&G and I am personally looking forward to seeing the positive impact they will have across our Group.
Rob Fowkes, Managing Director of Sealco International Ltd commented:
Joining R&G Fluid Power Group marks an exciting new chapter for Sealco International. Since the business was established in 1991, we have built our reputation around technical expertise, quality products and exceptional customer service. R&G shares those values and provides the scale, resources and wider capabilities to support our continued growth. I am delighted to remain as Managing Director, working alongside our existing team to build on Sealco’s success while ensuring our customers continue to receive the same personal service and specialist support, they know and trust.
As with all R&G Fluid Power Group businesses, Sealco International Ltd will continue to operate under its existing brand, maintaining its strong market identity, customer relationships and commitment to service excellence.
