2. Company History The company Mogens Christensen, Ingenioer & Handelsfirma A/S was founded in 1963 by Mogens Christensen as a trading company located in a villa in Holte, Denmark. From the beginning, the company was distributing pumps from Halberg, water meters from Aqua Metro (Switzerland) and seals from George Angus, England. This company was at that time one of the worlds leading sealing companies especially famous for their o-rings in GACO- material. With this basis, the company grew through the sixties and seventies and gained respect for the service and know how. In 1987, the company moved to bigger premises in Birkeroed and the year after the son in law, Martin Laegsdgaard joined the company as managing director. One of his first decisions was to concentrate the activity on the seals. Later also rubber items moulded to customers` specification became an important article. One important milestone was the implementation of ISO 9001 quality management system for which we obtained certification 1997. In 1998, it became again necessary to find bigger facilities and the company moved to the present location in Espergaerde where we have at our disposal 1700 m2 and from 2002 additionally 800m2. Because of growing international activity, the brand name M SEALS A/S was adopted in 1999.
