Freudenberg’s acquisition of Dichtomatik allowed it to provide a more comprehensive range of sealing solutions. While Freudenberg traditionally focused on high-end, engineered solutions for OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and complex industrial applications, Dichtomatik’s focus was on offering a broad range of cost-effective, standard sealing products for aftermarket and distribution channels.
Today, Dichtomatik seals operates as the "service brand" of Freudenberg Sealing Technologies and supplies standard sealing products in a variety of industries, including:
- Hydraulics / Pneumatics / Drive technology
- Agriculture
- Food and drinks
- Automotive industry
- General industry
Dichtomatik offers a comprehensive range of seals, O-rings, radial shaft seals, hydraulic seals and other sealing products, with an emphasis on availability, reliability and customer service.
- 1978: Dichtomatik is founded in Hamburg, Germany, as a supplier of sealing components.
- 1980s - 2000s: Expansion into new markets and broadening its product range, positioning itself as a major player in the sealing market, especially in the aftermarket segment.

- After 2011: Dichtomatik continues to act as the service brand of Freudenberg Sealing Technologies, offering standard sealing products and complementing Freudenberg's high-quality solutions.

This strategy ensures that Freudenberg covers the entire spectrum of the sealing market, serving both complex OEM applications and general industrial needs through Dichtomatik's extensive product catalogue.
