Design office for custom
leather seals and bellows

When you have a sealing problem on an application that standard solutions cannot resolve, our design office takes over. You describe to us what you need to protect or seal. We look at your application and propose a suitable leather solution before starting production.

Static and dynamic sealing in leather:
our area of expertise

A static seal does not move. It prevents leaks between two fixed parts. A dynamic seal or bellow works in motion, on a cylinder rod, a rotating shaft or a slide. Leather is particularly effective on dynamic applications. Its natural flexibility allows it to absorb dimensional variations without losing its sealing properties. We have been working with both types for more than 130 years and we can quickly direct you to the right solution for your application.

Design and manufacture of
custom leather seals in our workshop

Our design office and our workshop work together. When we design your part, we already know how we are going to manufacture it. You send us your drawing, your sketch or a part to replace. We take care of everything: design, leather selection and manufacturing. No unnecessary back-and-forth, no nasty surprises on delivery.

Custom leather seals and bellows without costly specific tooling

We are the only European company certified ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 for the production of leather seals and bellows. We are also labelled Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant. This is not merely decorative on a web page. It means that every part we design and manufacture is documented, traceable and meets precise requirements. You know what you are receiving and why.

    Frequently asked questions
    for our design office

    Do I need a drawing to submit a project to our leather seals and bellows design office?

    No. A dimensioned sketch or an existing part to replace is sufficient to get started. If you have none of these, describe your application. We will ask the right questions to move forward.

    Send us your request with your dimensions or your part. We will study your need and come back to you with a concrete solution and a precise lead time promptly.

    Yes. We handle both single units and series production. That is the advantage of leather: no costly specific tooling, therefore no minimum quantity imposed.
