Our History

Company History

Since its founding in 1992, PolyMod® Technologies Inc. has revolutionized the sealing industry by prioritizing customer service, quality, and innovation. This was set in motion soon after our founding when a core research and development team was created by founder, William S. Shamban, to facilitate design and material innovation. In 1993, we received our international patent for our friction reduction process, proudly named “PolyMod®”. Shortly after, in 1994, PolyMod® Technologies Inc. was the first company to develop an approved material to meet NAS1613 requirements for elastomer seal elements for use in hydraulic systems using phosphate ester fluids. In the years following the introduction of our NAS1613 approved material, E3 (EPDM), our commitment to innovation and quality has allowed us to develop additional materials to meet various other standards including MIL-P-83461, MIL-R-83248, and AMSP25732.

Certification and Industry Involvement

In order to remain competitive and credible in the sealing industry, we have maintained the AS9100 and ISO certifications for over 25 years. To this day, we are still involved in committees such as SAE and NFPA. This is the foundation of our business as it allows us to understand current and future industry needs as they evolve so we can deliver the best solutions to our customers.

Product Range and Market Reach

Our devotion to optimizing the customer experience begins with a highly diverse range of PolyMod® products available to customers. To satisfy the demands for numerous applications and market requirements, our products range from standard O-Ring profiles to custom engineered seals. Within this expansive range of products are seals that have effectively and reliably served markets such as Aerospace, Medical, Automotive, and Energy for more than 30 years.
