COMPANY HISTORY
In 1996, Seal & Design moved into its current location in Clarence, NY.
In 2003, we achieved the ISO/TS 16949 certification.
In 2006, Seal & Design moved into Canada with the purchase of Able O-Rings and Seals. Today Seal & Design Canada is a recognized leading supplier in the Toronto and Southern Ontario markets.
In 2011 and again in 2014, we expanded our warehouse facility to a grand total of 91,000 square feet of manufacturing and office space.
In 2015, Seal & Design acquired Higbee Gaskets Inc. of Syracuse, NY and transformed them into Higbee Division.
In 2018, we became IATF 16949:2016 certified.
Seal & Design Canada was originally founded in 1972 as Able O-Rings and Seals in Toronto, Ontario.
In 2006, the company was acquired by Seal & Design Inc. and became Able Seal & Design and eventually as it is today: Seal & Design Canada.
In 2013, Able moved its operations to a brand new facility, just next door to its original location. The new facility allows Seal & Design Canada to continue its healthy growth.
Today, Seal & Design Canada serves all our customers in Canada and also provides a walk-in counter service for local customers.
Over the years, Higbee Gaskets became successful and has become a reliable name in the national gasketing market.
In 2015, Seal & Design officially acquired Higbee Gaskets and subsequently Higbee Division was created under the Seal & Design corporate umbrella. The synergy between the two companies will strengthen Seal & Design’s position in the national and global markets.
