Founded in 1933, the Fluid Sealing Association® is an international trade association. Member companies are involved in the production and marketing of a wide range of fluid sealing devices primarily targeted to the industrial market.
Fluid Sealing Association membership includes a number of companies in Europe and Central and South America, but is most heavily concentrated in North America. Fluid Sealing Association members account for a majority of the manufacturing capacity for fluid sealing and containment devices in the Americas market.
The Fluid Sealing Association is dedicated to advancing the fluid sealing industry by fostering innovation, promoting sustainability, and ensuring the highest standards of safety and reliability. The Association strives to be the leading resource for education, advocacy, and collaboration, empowering members and stakeholders to achieve excellence in fluid sealing solutions for a better tomorrow.
What keeps industrial fluid systems operating safely and reliably under demanding conditions? Effective sealing.
In this video, the Fluid Sealing Association explores how compression packing, mechanical seals, gaskets, and expansion joints help maintain containment across pumps, valves, piping, and rotating equipment.
From controlling leakage and emissions to managing vibration, movement, and thermal growth, these essential sealing technologies help protect equipment, improve reliability, and support safer, more efficient operations.
Watch to see how the four FSA divisions contribute to dependable fluid handling across industrial applications.

Flange leakage in emissions service can result in loss production and money. If a plant is going to reduce emissions at a plant, one important step that is often overlooked is procedures of flange sealing. This training focuses on the best practices for successful flange sealing including gasket seating stresses, torque calculations, and gasket selection.
This training will focus on identifying best practices in regards to valve packing installation in downstream emissions service. The best valve packing installed incorrectly will not ensure compliance to LDAR requirements. It is imperative that a plant have a serious, focused, approach to this important subject.
