Beyond Omniseal® Blog

In our last blog post dedicated to manufacturing, we shared exciting news that Omniseal Solutions™ is further expanding capabilities at our Kontich, Belgium site to specifically address advanced polymer needs in two emerging industries - aerospace and life sciences, in addition to supporting the oil and gas industry. Growth in global aerospace is due to increased passenger travel and the race to space while potential has grown in healthcare as a result of increasing aging populations, greater focus on wellness and a digital mindset, overall, in life sciences.

October is a month that is especially close to Omniseal Solutions™ as we and the rest of the world celebrate Manufacturing Day on October 4^th. Typically held every first Friday in October, Manufacturing Day not only highlights the importance of this industry to local, national and global economies but is also used to inspire the next generation of creators. 

What better time to reflect on our promise as a global manufacturing company of going beyond the boundaries of possible in many applications that are key to everyday mobility and wellbeing? We are proud to draw on over 50 years in design, engineering, R&D and manufacturing as well as a global presence of 13 manufacturing facilities (in addition to five in sales and eight in R&D) in 14 countries that are certified ISO 9001, ISO 14001, AS 9100, and/or ISO 16949.

We also cannot think of a better time to make a major announcement about our Kontich site!
