Effective seals protect against heat, cold and draughts. In showers, they also help keep water inside the shower enclosure.
Windows, doors, refrigerators, freezers, cold rooms and showers in wet areas. Laboratories and operating theatres, too. They all have one thing in common: they require properly fitting and effective seals.
In hydraulic systems, seals are small but essential components. They reliably keep hydraulic fluid within the system, enable the required pressure build-up, protect the system from contamination and help reduce wear on moving components.
The poesia group offers more than 1'000 sizes and versions of hydraulic seals and supports customers in selecting the right solution – from piston and rod seals to wipers and guide strips.
Whether in mechanical engineering, the food industry, or chemical plants, high-quality sealing solutions are essential for safe and cost-effective operation. They prevent the leakage of liquids and gases, protect machinery and equipment against wear, and ensure a long service life as well as safe and efficient operation.
We would like to warmly congratulate our apprentices Niklas (Plastics Technician Assistant, Federal VET Certificate) and Robin (Commercial Employee, Federal VET Diploma) on successfully completing their apprenticeships.
By passing the qualification procedure, you have reached an important milestone and laid the foundation for your future professional careers.
When planning the renovation of an older building, most people first think of a new heating system, improved roof and façade insulation, or renovating bathrooms and kitchens. However, one crucial aspect is often overlooked: old and worn seals in windows and doors.
Many houses built in the 1960s and 1970s no longer meet today’s energy-efficiency standards, and poorly insulated buildings lose a significant amount of valuable heat. The consequences include excessively high heating costs, drafts, moisture, and mould growth. In addition, the indoor climate becomes uncomfortable, as rooms are often too hot in summer and too cold in winter.
Shaft seals are inconspicuous yet essential components in mechanical engineering. They are used in gearboxes, pumps and electric motors and are applied by companies in industries such as chemical processing, mechanical and pump engineering, as well as automotive and agricultural machinery manufacturing.
Shaft seals are the silent workers in the background – invisible, yet critically important. Their task is to retain oil and grease within the system while preventing dirt, dust, contaminants and water from entering, ensuring that machines continue to operate smoothly and reliably.
From window seals and doors to industrial systems: seals ensure tightness, protection against environmental influences and energy efficiency. Despite their important function, they often go unnoticed.
This is exactly where Rubby comes in. The mascot of the poesia gruppe makes the world of seals, materials and applications easy to understand.
In chemically demanding applications, conventional elastomer O-rings quickly reach their limits, as they do not offer the required properties. With encapsulated O-rings made of PFA (perfluoroalkoxy pol-ymers) and FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene), the poesia group provides solutions for demanding special applications.
Mit grosser Trauer nehmen wir Abschied von Hans Beat Christen, der am 8. April 2026 verstorben ist.
Hans Beat Christen war weit mehr als ein langjähriger Mitarbeiter – er war Mitgründer, Verwaltungsratsmitglied, Wegbereiter und eine prägende Persönlichkeit der heutigen poesia-gruppe. Als Mitgründer der pbc polymer ag hat er mit grosser Leidenschaft, unternehmerischem Weitblick und unermüdlichem Engagement den Grundstein für unseren heutigen Erfolg gelegt.
With the office expansion in Unterkulm, the poesia group is creating space for further growth and modern workplaces. Following the planned progress of the timber construction, the next key milestone is the installation of the new windows.
