Food and Beverage

Our expertise in gaskets, o-rings, and seals ensures reliable solutions tailored for the food and beverage sectoraccording to the regulation industry requests.

In the food and beverage processing industry, every phase in converting raw goods into finished, consumable products use diverse machinery.

MCM provides high-quality gaskets, seals, and o-rings for food and beverage industry, specifically engineered to withstand demanding processing conditions while ensuring full compliance with industry regulations. To guarantee the purity and reliability of our products, we operate a certified clean room for the production of ultra-pure materials.

The food and beverage sector faces a series of considerable challenges in sealing

Extreme Temperature Ranges: seals and o-rings for food and beverage industry must withstand significant temperature variations. Sealing integrity and durability must be maintained from the icy conditions of cold storage to the intense heat of cooking and sterilization processes.

Our custom gaskets and o-rings are designed to maintain sealing performance in food and beverage machinery operating under extreme temperature conditions.

Chemical Resistance: Cleaning agents and chemicals are frequently used to maintain hygiene in food processing environments. Consequently, seals must display high chemical resistance to prevent degradation that could lead to leaks and potential product contamination.

We offer seals and o-rings resistant to aggressive cleaning agents, ensuring safe and durable applications in food and beverage processing lines.

Wear and Abrasion Resistance: The constant mechanical movements inherent to the operation of processing machinery demand seals with excellent wear and abrasion resistance. High-pressure techniques also contribute to the stress placed on these critical components.

We produce gaskets and o-rings guarantee high wear resistance and long-lasting sealing performance in mechanical stress, typical of food processing equipment.

Food Safety Regulations: All seals used within food processing must be food-grade, non-toxic, and comply with rigorous food safety regulations. Compliance ensures the health and safety of consumers and protects manufacturers from potential legal issues related to food safety.

MCM's food-grade seals and o-rings are manufactured from certified materials, fully compliant with international food safety standards to ensure contamination-free production.

We manufacture sealing solutions from gaskets to o-rings and seals, used in food and beverage applications, offering reliability and safety for every processing phase, specifically for:

  • Household appliances
  • Process equipment
Compounds for Food and Beverage applications
Guarnizioni o ring alimentare

Materials

We provide a full range of materials to manufacture gasket, seals and o-rings for food and beverage industry, ensuring compliance with all necessary regulations.

The following materials are the most commonly used for food and beverage applications:

  • FFKM evolast®

    characterised by a broad service temperature range from -46 °C to 340 °C, evolast® compounds exhibit remarkable resistance to aggressive chemicals, such as acids, organic and inorganic fluids, ketones, esters, solvents, amines, as well as hot water and steam.

  • FKM

    Special compounds for explosive decompression (AED/RGD) ensure reliable performance in extreme conditions. Working within temperature ranges from -60 °C to 250 °C, these materials exhibit good physical properties and excellent chemical resistance.

  • EPDM

    Specifically designed for H2 and CO2 service, with good resistance to steam, ranging from -60 °C up to 150 °C.

Not limited to the food and beverage industry, our high-performance gaskets, o-rings, and seals are designed to meet the demanding requirements of multiple sectors. From Energy, Oil & Gas and Petrochemical, Automotive, Semiconductor, Aerospace, Aircraft and Marine, to the Chemical Process Industry, MCM delivers tailored sealing solutions that ensure reliability, compliance, and long-lasting performance in even the most critical applications.
