FFKM O-rings

SERVICE

Closed-loop FFKM regeneration service

In closed-loop recycling, a manufacturer's own material is regenerated and goes back into the same production. Fanilo provides this as a service for FFKM: the customer sends FFKM, and receives the same material back. The service is engineered to match the quality of virgin material.

01 / SCOPE

What the closed loop covers

Both routes end in the same place: the FFKM returns to the company that made it.

ROUTE A

Production scrap

Moulding flash and rejected parts from your own FFKM production.

ROUTE B

Used parts returned by your customers

FFKM seals you supplied to a fab come back to you after use, and you send them on to Fanilo. The regenerated material returns to you.

02 / PRINCIPLES

Service principles

FFKM only

We specialise in regeneration technology for FFKM.

Returned as received

The material you send is the material you receive. Each lot is regenerated on its own and returned to you.

Original formulation kept

We do not change the customer's formulation. Colour and transparency are preserved.

Co-development

For requirements outside the standard service, our R&D team can develop a process together with the customer.

03 / THE RULES

What comes in is what goes back

Our service rests on one promise: you receive your own material, as you sent it. A few simple rules keep that promise.

One colour in, the same colour out

Send a single colour and you receive that colour.

Clear stays clear

Send clear FFKM and it comes back clear.

Mixed colours return as one lot

Colours sent together are regenerated together and returned as a single mixed lot.

Clean scrap only

Please send FFKM scrap free of tape and other foreign matter. Lots that contain them are returned unprocessed, and a handling fee applies.

Regeneration as a service

The material remains yours from receipt to return. We add nothing and change nothing.

05 / BENEFITS

Benefits for the customer

Resource efficiency

Scrap goes back into production instead of being disposed of, so less new material is needed.

Material integrity

The process uses no chemicals and no heat. The original formulation, colour and transparency are kept.

Less waste

Less FFKM is sent for disposal, and less new raw material is consumed.

Lower material cost

Regenerated FFKM replaces part of the new material purchased.

Send us a sample of your FFKM scrap and we will run a trial batch.
