On March 31, Hallite Seals Australia — a supplier of hydraulic cylinder sealing solutions — announced its acquisition of SealTeam Australia, which includes its sister company, AB Seals.

Financial details were not disclosed.

SealTeam Australia and AB Seals distribute standard and tailored, highly technical hydraulic and pneumatic sealing solutions.

“As an official distributor for Hallite, AB Seals has been a trusted partner for more than 20 years,” said John Curtis, Global Managing Director at Hallite. “And SealTeam brings great polymer engineering experience, seal design expertise, and local hydraulic seal testing facilities. As a result, we are confident that Hallite will gain a team of trusted experts and an agile, responsive offering that will allow us to further strengthen our presence in the aftermarket space while maintaining the quality of customer service we are known for.”

Hallite said the deal will grow its local customer-focused team and will expand its reach in Australia with the support of its network of global technical experts.

“This strategy aligns with the company’s mission to enhance customers’ experience and deliver meaningful innovations,” the company said in its announcement.

Hallite said it will integrate the SealTeam group into its brand, and Neil Tindle, the company’s Managing Director, will assume the role of Managing Director for the combined Hallite Australia operation.
