Freudenberg mechanical seals help turn seawater into drinking water

EagleBurgmann is quenching the thirst

About 70% of our planet is ocean. EagleBurgmann, a Freudenberg company, has pioneered a technology that transforms sea water into a vital source of drinking water. Our sealing solutions help to quench the thirst of millions.


There is enough water – but only a fraction is drinkable


According to international organizations, approximately 2.2 billion people do not have regular access to safe drinking water. Water is essential for both daily life and agricultural production. In regions facing limited freshwater availability, seawater desalination can contribute to drinking water supplies. As desalination technologies continue to evolve, they play an increasingly important role in water infrastructure in many regions.

EagleBurgmann provides sealing solutions designed for use in desalination plants, helping to support reliable system performance.

EagleBurgmann is a sealing solution provider for all water applications: 
 

  • Industrial production
  • Desalination
  • Water industry
  • Sealing technology for baths, thermal pools, spas and water parks
  • Transportation and special real estate

Our seals might be a comparatively small item in the production but for millions of people they make a significant difference.
