About Hebmüller Technik
Hebmüller GmbH is an owner-managed company based in Meerbusch that specialises in the manufacture of sealing and screening technology. Its portfolio comprises 2K elastomer seals and composite seals (rubber-metal), frame seals, diaphragms, bellows, moulded seals as well as complete screen assemblies in which plastic or metal mesh is overmoulded by injection moulding. Production is carried out as manual and semi-automatic series manufacturing for small to medium volumes. In-house engineers support projects from design through prototypes and tool adaptations to production readiness; in addition, assembly kitting, assembly, quality assurance, logistics and warehousing are offered. The experience accumulated over decades in the automotive industry is transferred to customers from mechanical engineering, filtration and hydraulics. At the Meerbusch site, production, high-bay warehouse and logistics are combined in one location. The company's roots go back to 1889, when Karosserie Hebmüller was founded in Wuppertal.
