What is Seal Tooling?
Seal tooling refers to custom-designed components that apply heat and pressure to form secure seals on packaging materials. These tools ensure proper alignment, pressure distribution, and thermal control—key factors in creating high-quality, tamper-evident seals.
Algus specializes in custom seal tooling tailored to the specific requirements of your products, materials, and machinery. Whether you’re running an Algus machine or another manufacturer’s equipment, we can design, engineer, and manufacture tooling that optimizes your packaging process.
