YOUR BENEFITS

Datwyler. For your future success.

The name Datwyler stands for excellence in sealing solutions. But, it also stands for creativity and drive, dependability and entrepreneurial spirit, and a passion for shared success with our customers. Our products and services enable you to successfully overcome the challenges of tomorrow and thus anticipate the future with confidence. Thanks to our technical knowledge and years of experience in material development and engineering, we are always able to find an individual yet cost-efficient approach – even for complex problems. Applying sophisticated development and production processes, our specialists manage to repeatedly raise the bar of technical feasibility.

Datwyler stands out with its distinct core competencies and its constant focus on clearly defined global market segments. In the Healthcare, Mobility, Food & Beverage, General Industry and Civil Engineering fields, we offer our customers advanced technological and process know-how, unique material expertise and global service. This combination makes Datwyler a preferred partner of global companies that aspire to sustainable growth.

Every success story begins with questions.

Man sitting at the desk — Is there an efficient way to advance my idea to large-scale production?

Woman working with a microscope — Who can deliver a production process that I can absolutely trust?

Business man holding a pen while sitting at a table — Is there a business partner who will support me at any time and place?

Man holding a cup while standing in front of a board — Is there a material that remains leakproof even for decades?

Every customer request requires an individual and differentiated response. That’s why the specific solutions we develop for our partners span a wide spectrum – yet each is based on the same core competencies of Datwyler.

Engineering. Material & simulation expertise. Processing quality. Global services.

Workers talking in front of a screen in the factory — I can convert every good idea into efficient, large-scale production. For innovation that brings success for the long term.

Worker in the factory — I can be certain that the production process meets the highest standards. To meet even the highest quality demands, with no compromise.

Man in front of a map at the wall — I can support our customers. Anywhere in the world. Removing barriers for worldwide success.

For innovation that brings success for the long term.

Here at Datwyler, we possess a unique mix of knowledge and experience. Because our engineers, process technicians, and project managers come from a variety of scientific and technical fields, we can draw upon a multidisciplinary wealth of experience. This enables us to find the right solution for each task, working in a creative and interdisciplinary way, collaborating constructively with our customers, and meeting all the technological and commercial challenges – regardless of whether the goal is the production of a single component or the complete development of a comprehensive solution system.

To ensure safety in every regard.

We have been gathering experience with materials used for gaskets, seals and closures for many decades. Gained in a wide array of industries, this know-how is always specifically related to process engineering and application requirements. Based on this special expertise, we develop customized materials with extraordinary properties that meet the most rigorous requirements.

While sophisticated simulation processes allow rapid and cost-efficient development, defined test pro- cedures in our in-house laboratories ensure maximum product quality. Characteristics like absolute chemical purity or special resistance properties allow our products to be used in a wide range of appli- cations – for example, in seals for pharmaceutical products.

To meet even the highest quality demands, with no compromise.

A zero-defect philosophy and the capability to produce high volumes are essential when manufacturing critical parts. Regardless of whether the need is for a conventionally made stopper for a medicinal vial or a high-performance component for a brake system, the solution is achieved through innovative process technologies and efficient production processes that meet the highest standards.

Our employees in research and production remain at the cutting edge in their fields. They know the latest technologies and have state-of-the-art infrastructure at their fingertips. They are also continually trained in the newest test methods and apply a zero-defect philosophy in their everyday work. From use of the latest cleanroom technology to automated monitoring with the most modern inspection systems, we at Datwyler know exactly which technology must be used to achieve the best results for our customers.

Removing barriers for worldwide success.

Datwyler has in-house development, manufacturing and distribution capabilities in nearly all of the world’s key economic regions. Thus, we are in the position to support our customers comprehensively and efficiently at their site. When business perspectives open in new markets for our partners, we further expand our presence and invest in joint growth. Our goal is to be there for our customers at every point along the entire value creation chain. That’s why Global Service means more for us than just the development, production and supply of components. It means we offer our partners all the services necessary for successful global operation – from the planning and realization of production processes, including sourcing, to warehouse management and logistics.
