Lagercrantz has today acquired DP Seals Ltd, a leading supplier of rubber sealings and mouldings for high specification applications.

In-house tooling design and manufacturing enables the company to produce parts meeting the requirements of the most demanding industrial equipment manufacturers. Applications such as aerospace programs, subsea energy connections and Formula 1 racing cars typically require the use of rubber compounds that can withstand extreme pressures, temperatures and aggressive gases.

DP Seals will be part of Lagercrantz’ International Division as of December 2023. The acquisition is expected to have a marginally positive effect on the Group's earnings per share.
