Have you ever wondered how and where the seals you use in your industrial machinery are manufactured? In Lidering we are manufacturers of mechanical seals in Spain with our own production and in this post we tell you everything about the process of design and production of standard mechanical seals, as well as the manufacture of special seals, produced from start to finish from our production center in Reus (Tarragona).

Own production of mechanical seals
If there is one thing that characterizes us at Lidering, it is that our business is based on the manufacture of mechanical seals from start to finish: since the initial design, the preparation of the prototype or pre-series, the production and manufacture of the mechanical seal, the quality control of the manufactured elements, the assembly and the final tightness test, which guarantees a good result.
Having our own production center located in Reus (Tarragona) allows us to offer:
- Tailoring to specific needs: An in-house production facility enables the manufacture of customized mechanical seals tailored to specific customer needs. This includes the capacity to manufacture standard mechanical seals for common applications, as well as special seals for more demanding and specific needs.
- Higher quality and guarantee: By having our own production facility, the quality of mechanical seal repairs can be guaranteed. This includes thorough cleaning of seal parts, replacement of complementary fittings and static seal tests, etc.
- Mastery of all phases of the manufacturing process: Our experts carry out all steps of the manufacturing process; from the design and initial prototyping to the production and manufacture of the seal, not forgetting the control of quality and watertightness test. Always guaranteeing more than optimal results.
- Better customer service: having our own seal factory allows us to offer a better service and a more direct relationship with the customer. This includes greater responsiveness, the ability to manufacture customized mechanical seals and quality assurance on repairs.
Custom mechanical seals
Through a proprietary production process that combines state-of-the-art technology with customisation, we at Lidering are manufacturers of standard mechanical seals as well as custom mechanical seals. From material selection to final finishing, every step is designed to ensure the quality and durability of our sealing products.
Indeed, in our own production center in Reus, we can manufacture mechanical seals of components for the food industry, industrial refrigeration or the chemical industry. We also design and create cartridge mechanical seals for critical applications in the chemical and food sectors, among others. Another type of mechanical seals we manufacture are cartridge seals for agitators and reactors (aimed at the pharmaceutical, cosmetics and chemical industries). Finally, we manufacture shafts, sleeves, bushings and other components for pumps and agitators
Special mechanical seals: we adapt to the needs of each client
In addition to being a manufacturer of standard mechanical seals, we also offer special mechanical seals custom designed to meet any specific need.
Indeed, at Lidering we can manufacture tailor-made sealing elements by analyzing the needs of our customers and designing a customized seal prototype. Whether they are large seals, high temperature seals or seals for special applications, we can manufacture them all to the exact requirements of our customers.
But, how do you create a custom mechanical seal? The process of manufacturing a mechanical seal starts in our engineering team, creating a design solution using 3D software and the latest technology in mechanical seal design for pumping and agitation equipment.
From here, and after the production and manufacturing process of the special seal, Lidering offers advice and assistance in assembly, quality certificates and technical reports that endorse the work, from start to finish, of creating mechanical seals.
Repair of mechanical seals in Spain
Having our own production center located in Reus (Tarragona) for the repair of mechanical seals offers great benefits and advantages. One of them is that in Lidering we are not only dedicated to the manufacture of mechanical seals and sealing components, but we are also dedicated to the repair of mechanical seals, betting on the durability and long-term performance of these components.
From Reus, we offer a wide range of mechanical seal repair, recovery and enhancement services. With a technical team trained to diagnose and repair a variety of problems that can affect the performance of mechanical seals, at Lidering we can repair leaking or prematurely worn mechanical seals, restoring seals to full working order and significantly extending their service life.
In addition, once the mechanical seal repair and upgrade operations are completed, all seals are subjected to rigorous seal testing to ensure that they function properly.
Conclusion
In short, at Lidering we are committed to providing comprehensive solutions for the manufacture, repair, recovery and upgrading of mechanical seals. With our highly skilled technical team and state-of-the-art in-house facilities, we are ready to tackle any challenge and ensure maximum durability and performance of our customers’ mechanical seals.
Finally, having our own production center and mechanical seal factory in Spain gives us a clear advantage over the competition: this strategic location in Tarragona gives us access to a highly qualified workforce and a network of reliable suppliers. And through international subsidiaries and distributors, we can obtain a strong international presence in all markets.
