Fluiten, an Italian company that works in the rotating shaft seal sector, has installed a triple mechanical seal at the Solvay Solexis plant at Spinetta Marengo (Alessandria). The previous seals on a device for working polymer latex were replaced with Fluiten seals in order to improve its efficiency and reliability and ensure greater production continuity.

Fluiten is an entirely Italian company that has worked in the rotating shaft seal sector for over forty years. In refineries and petrochemical and chemical processing plants, the dispersion of dangerous toxic substances into the environment implies serious health, safety and environmental problems.

Fluiten is the Italian leader in the design and manufacture of mechanical seals for rotating shafts used in the chemical, oil, pharmaceutical and energy industries. It has been successful in the marine sector for several years with a seal developed for orkboat propeller shafts used in the military and leisure sectors.

Fluiten, an entirely Italian company that has worked in the rotary shaft seal sector for over 40 years, was awarded an unprecedented contract by Enel to carry out retrofit work at a thermal power station in the province of Venice. The company replaced the original pump packing seals with its own mechanical seals and optimized plant output.
