This 10,000 Sq Ft building is the next chapter in the continued growth of the company, formed in 1996 and widely recognized as one of the worlds leading PTFE seal manufacturers. This brand-new complex will enable us to further expand and improve on our seal manufacturing processes, design and prototype work, toolmaking and raw material manufacture. We have made considerable efforts towards contributing towards Net Zero and the building has the most energy efficient ceiling, wall and floor insulation available, coupled with LED lighting and translucent roof lights to 20% of roof area with air source heat pumps coupled to the PV array.

As a seal manufacturer it's always nice for us to get involved with a special project - gives us a chance to flex our design and manufacturing muscles! 💪 We were recently asked to manufacture a range of special fitting tools for a customer in Acetal. Using our in house EDM tool making facility we were able to produce the specialist tooling required to precisely machine and mill the parts to the customers drawing perfectly! ✅ If you have any special (or standard seal profile) requirements in PTFE, PEEK, Acetal, UHWM-PE, Nylon or other grade of plastics OR Polymers please get in touch and we'd be happy to discuss your application! #SEALS #SEALINGSOLUTIONS #PEEK #ACETAL #NYLON #POM #PTFE #UHWMPE #GLASSFILLED #CARBONFILLED #SPECIALSEAL #MADEINTHEUK #FPM #NITRILE #SILICONE #POLYURETHANE #EPDM #FDA #API #METALDETECTABLE #EDM

Storage and Shelf Life... Choosing the right material is not the only factor that can affect a seals life and we are often asked about the best way to store a seal once it's been delivered. Improper storage conditions can decrease a seals lifespan and rubber can crack, harden, soften, or degrade in other ways that make them unsafe for their intended use. Environmental factors influencing a seals life include stress and strain on the seal, humidity, light, radiation, temperature, and ozone. Contact with other materials can also have an impact including liquids, dust and metal swarf. Seals should be stored in sealed, light proof bags and we would always recommend replacing the seals into their original packaging where possible once received and inspected. Never hang a seal on a hook or nail! "Shelf Life" is the maximum amount of time an appropriately packaged seal is expected to last between the point of manufacture and the time the seal is fitted. Shelf life varies according to the type of material and Moontown are happy to advise on the most suitable material for your application. If a seal has been in storage longer than its shelf life, even under perfect conditions, it is no longer it is generally now unfit for use. Maintaining seals throughout their intended shelf life involves providing a storage environment free from light, oxygen, ozone, and chemicals. Excessive hot/cold temperatures, and physical impact will cause permanent damage to elastomers, making them useless. Always check your seals before installation to confirm that they are in good condition. Hardening, softening, stickiness, cracking, and discoloration all indicate that there may be a problem with the seal. If in doubt our technical team are always available to help. #ptfe #polyurethane #sealingsolutions #shelflife #nitrile #silicone #epdm #ffkm #fpm #seals #madeintheuk #oilandgas #valves #springenergised

As it's "Take Your Dog To Work Day" I thought I'd share a picture of my home office assistant, Henry. He's utterly useless at email, can't hold a pen, doesn't drive and doesn't know a seal from his food bowl!! But he's excellent company when I'm working from home and that's what counts! ❤️ #takeyourdogtowork #mentalhealth #seals #ptfe #sealingsolutions #madeintheuk #viton #nbr #silicone #polyurethane #gaskets #woof

"Cryogenics" refers to applications functioning at extremely low temperatures, typically at or below -190°C. These applications often use substances like liquid nitrogen, refrigerants, and hydrocarbons with low freezing points to achieve their outcome therefore appropriate cryogenic seals to contain these substances are crucial. Sealing cryogenics successfully depends on many factors such as spring force, surface finish, friction and allowable leakage. Moontown Ltd have considerable experience manufacturing seals in house for many applications that use cryogenics such as the food, medical, pharmaceutical, LNG, marine and space industries. Get in touch with us to discuss ways that we can keep you cool! 🌡 ❄ #cryogenics #sealingsolutions #madeintheuk #ptfe #space #foodandbeverage #pharmaceutical #seals #springenergised #spring #valves #liquidnitrogen #lng #refrigeration #medical #gaskets #elsa #cryogenic
