Texel-Seikow

What Texel-Seikow does

Texel-Seikow is the North American sales and distribution subsidiary of Seikow Chemical Engineering & Machinery, Ltd., a Japanese manufacturer founded in 1956 and headquartered in Akashi City, Japan. The company designs and manufactures corrosion-resistant industrial equipment for handling aggressive gases and liquids in chemical processing, petrochemical, water and wastewater, and metal finishing environments. Its product portfolio comprises three core categories — centrifugal fans and blowers (polypropylene, FRP, and titanium constructions including NSF, FTF, FTB, FTW, and FTB-CL series), wet scrubbers (TRS series) for emissions control, and sealless magnetic drive centrifugal pumps (MTA Series) with PFA-lined wetted components — supported by FRP dampers and accessories. Underlying technology centers on advanced materials including fiberglass-reinforced plastic (vinyl ester and polyester resins), polypropylene, titanium, and PFA/ETFE fluoropolymers, with proprietary high-pressure transfer molding for seamless pump linings and AMCA-certified performance ratings.

The company operates a global manufacturing footprint spanning Akashi (Japan, original 1989 factory, expanded 2009), Suzhou (China, 2010), Dong Nai (Vietnam, 2014), and Houston, USA (sales office, 2013, which began direct sales of magnetic drive pumps in January 2023). Go-to-market is sales-led and direct-to-industrial: each product category has a dedicated RFQ form capturing detailed process specifications (gas composition, temperature, pressure, volume, materials), with pricing quoted per-project rather than on a standard rate card, and contracts structured as multi-year engagements. Secondary revenue is generated through stocked replacement parts and technical service for installed equipment. Distribution is handled through wholly-owned regional subsidiaries rather than third-party channel partners, supported by trade-show presence (Chem-E Show, Turbomachinery & Pump Symposia) and an extensive technical literature and case-study library. The company is privately held under its Japanese parent and is not publicly listed.

Revenue model

1. Industrial Equipment Sales: Texel-Seikow generates revenue through the manufacture and sale of corrosion-resistant industrial equipment including centrifugal fans, blowers, wet scrubbers, and magnetic drive pumps. Products are sold directly to industrial customers across chemical, petrochemical, water/wastewater, metal finishing, and other corrosive environment industries. The company offers various product series with different capacity ranges and specifications to meet diverse industrial application requirements.
2. Replacement Parts and Services: Texel-Seikow stocks magnetic drive pump replacement parts at their Houston facility and provides technical support for inspection, repair, and maintenance to minimize customer downtime. This provides recurring service revenue through component orders and technical support.

Core offering

Texel-Seikow manufactures and sells corrosion-resistant industrial air movement equipment (FRP centrifugal fans, polypropylene fans, high-pressure blowers, two-stage regenerative blowers, titanium blowers) and fluid handling equipment (magnetic drive centrifugal pumps, packed-bed wet scrubbers, FRP dampers) for industrial customers handling corrosive gases and liquids. Products are custom-quoted based on detailed application specifications including gas composition, temperature, pressure, and power requirements.

Product overview

Texel-Seikow is a global manufacturer of corrosion-resistant industrial air movement equipment and chemical processing pumps. The product portfolio consists of three core categories: (1) Fans and Blowers including plastic polypropylene fans (CES Model), centrifugal FRP fans (NSF and FTF series), high pressure FRP blowers (FTB series), two-stage regenerative blowers (FTW series), and titanium blowers (FTB-CL series) for chlorine service; (2) Magnetic drive centrifugal pumps (MTA Series ANSI) featuring PFA-lined, sealless design for corrosive chemical transfer; and (3) FRP wet scrubber systems (TRS series) for treating corrosive gases. Supporting these core products are industrial accessories including FRP dampers, PVC components, vibration isolators, and sound enclosures. All centrifugal fans and blowers are AMCA certified for air, sound, and efficiency ratings.
