History of the Company

 

American Seal & Engineering was established in 1971 by a group of technical professionals for the purpose of manufacturing metallic O-ring seals for the Aerospace & Defense industry and the Chemical industry. The current management group assumed controlling interest of the twenty year old metal seal manufacturing company in April 1991 and promptly designated engineering, technology improvement, and market diversification as the top priority.  Significant investments were made in engineering and manufacturing technology to enhance the company’s capabilities and capacity. By 1994, American Seal & Engineering had strengthened its reputation for manufacturing excellence and introduced two new products to its portfolio.

 

Our new state of the art manufacturing facility and world headquarters in Orange, Connecticut, laid the foundation for product advancement with strong emphasis on research and development. Technology growth provided the vehicle for the introduction of six patented metal sealing products and systems prompting several large scale contracts with industry leading OEMs. The company has grown from six employees in 1971 to more than 100 employees in three continents: Europe, Asia, and North America.  American Seal & Engineering is one of the last remaining independent resilient metal seal manufacturers in the world with sales in excess of $25 million. Our company currently offers complete engineering services ranging from full application review, system design, turnkey development, testing, and production hardware. Currently, American Seal & Engineering is a globally recognized solutions integrator and provider of a niche product.
