About Schlegel

 

Schlegel isn’t just the world’s leading weatherseals and hardware company.

Yes, that’s what we’re best known for. But we also design and manufacture products that keep equipment at home, in the office, on the road and in the air functioning smoothly and safely.

We started in the 1880’s making trims for horse drawn buggies and clothing. Today we provide innovative solutions for automotive, aerospace/aeronautic, as well as marine transport. We also keep office equipment, electronics and vacuum cleaners running smoothly.

 Building Products
We make and supply every part of a window - except the glass and the frame! In this respect we are unique.

Our weatherseals work in the harshest climates - keeping out the cold in Siberia and keeping out the heat and mosquitoes in sub-Sahara.

Our seals and hardware keep out what people want to keep out, and keep in what they want to keep in.

Schlegel innovates and adapts to the needs of the market – like Novaseal that was designed in collaboration with Schlegel customers and that revolutionised the way timber windows are sealed. Our Aquamac and Q-Lon are the world's leading weatherseals with Moaf extruded seal alone fitting in to over 30 million windows.

We’re quietly proud that our products are so well known that the recess into which weatherseals are inserted has become known as “the Schlegel Slot.” And, as the inventors of pile brush seals, customers throughout the world often refer to pile as simply “Schlegel seal”.

We supply the biggest names in the window and door industry – customers such as Veka, Schűco, Kőmmerling, Deceuninck and Rehau have been putting their trust in Schlegel since the very beginning.

Document Handling and Domestic
Schlegel products are important components in every day equipment in the home and office.

You’ll find Schlegel seals, cleaning and antistatic brushes, oil rollers and webs keeping a wide range of printers, copiers and faxes running smoothly.

Our spiral wound brushes clean the surfaces of copier photoreceptors to stop dust causing blotchy printing and photocopying.

Our precision seals help you get the exact money you request at cash point machines (ATM).

As you vacuum your house, our nozzle products are specifically designed to pick up hair and threads.

Anywhere a machine needs to guard against light and/or dust infiltration or static, Schlegel seals, carbon or stainless steel filaments, linear static dissipater brushes, acoustical seals or pile fabric seals can do the job.

Automotive - Industrial & Leisure
Schlegel started in the transport business. Today we provide innovative transport solutions for cars and recreational vehicles, aerospace/aeronautic as well as marine transport.
The transportation industries require reliability, flexibility and versatility in the variety of products they use to exclude dust and moisture.

Schlegel’s textile, plastics and foam technologies weave, form and manufacture a wide variety of components to seal all manner of vehicles against dust and water intrusion.

Schlegel works with companies to develop and manufacture customized products. Products like:

 

  • Edge Trim
  • Flex Channel
  • Spray Suppressants
  • Exhaust Hanger Bands
  • Sway Bar Bushing Liners
  • Specialist Textile Seals

Our textile expertise is second to none, regardless of application.
