FBU Sealing Technology, a leading manufacturer of mechanical seals, has successfully obtained the EAC Declaration of Conformity for its mechanical seals in compliance with CU-TR EAC 010, the technical regulation for "safety of machinery" within the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). This certification is a major milestone for FBU, marking a significant step in ensuring that our products meet the high safety and quality standards required for access to the EAEU market, which includes Russia, Kazakhstan, and other member states.
At FBU, we have always prioritized quality and compliance. Achieving the EAC certification reinforces our commitment to providing reliable and safe mechanical seals to our customers, enhancing our reputation within the EAEU market and beyond.

The EAC Declaration of Conformity is a mandatory requirement for entering the EAEU market. As part of the Customs Union Technical Regulation CU-TR EAC 010, this certification allows FBU's mechanical seals to seamlessly pass through customs in Russia, Kazakhstan, and other member states. Without this certification, products would be subject to delays, rejections, or even returns, significantly impacting business operations.
One of the most significant advantages of obtaining the EAC certification is the ability to simplify the certification process for multiple countries. The EAC certificate replaces the previous need for individual certifications in each EAEU country, such as GOST-R (Russia) and GOST-K (Kazakhstan), effectively providing a "one-time declaration, valid across five countries." This consolidation not only streamlines our export process but also saves FBU up to 30%-50% in testing and certification costs.
With the EAC certification, FBU is now able to enter the entire EAEU market, gaining access to a region that spans multiple high-demand industries such as oil and gas, energy, and manufacturing. This certification acts as a gateway to expanding FBU's footprint in these strategic markets, increasing visibility and accessibility for potential customers across EAEU member states.
The EAC certification ensures that FBU's mechanical seals meet all the necessary safety requirements outlined in the CU-TR EAC 010/2011, which covers mechanical stability, material compatibility, and more. For FBU, this certification signifies that our products have undergone rigorous testing and meet the safety and performance criteria required for the EAEU market. By adhering to these standards, we mitigate any potential risks associated with non-compliance and safeguard both our business and our customers.
The EAC certification also emphasizes FBU's accountability as a manufacturer. This self-declaration of conformity ensures that we accept responsibility for the design, production, and safety of our mechanical seals. In the event of any product defects or accidents related to design, FBU would be legally accountable for civil compensation. Furthermore, regulatory authorities within the EAEU, such as Russia’s Rostechnadzor, have the right to perform spot checks, and our EAC certification, along with the accompanying test reports, serves as the sole legal document proving our compliance.
To obtain the EAC certification, FBU’s mechanical seals were tested against several critical performance indicators:
Sealing Performance: Static leakage rate must be ≤0.1 mg/h (ISO 3069 standard).
Corrosion Resistance: The seals must pass a 48-hour salt spray test according to GOST 9.014-78.
Structural Strength: The seal face compressive strength must be ≥200 MPa for metal materials.
These stringent tests ensure that FBU's mechanical seals perform reliably under various operational conditions, preventing leaks, material degradation, and other failures. This certification helps us identify and address any potential design defects before they impact customers, enhancing the overall quality and dependability of our products.
By adhering to the EAC certification process, FBU has proactively mitigated technical risks, ensuring that the seals meet the highest industry standards. The testing process allows us to detect and resolve any potential flaws early in the design phase, safeguarding the performance and longevity of our seals.
The EAC certification boosts FBU’s reputation and trustworthiness in the eyes of our customers, particularly in high-demand sectors such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, and energy. For companies in these industries, compliance with international safety standards is crucial, and FBU’s EAC certification sets us apart from competitors who may not have the necessary documentation.
In particular, companies like Gazprom (Russia) and the Minsk Tractor Works (Belarus) require EAC certification for all suppliers participating in their bidding processes. FBU’s certification thus enhances our ability to compete for large-scale contracts in these high-value markets.
Certified products often command a premium price in the market. EAC-certified mechanical seals can be sold at a 15%-25% price premium compared to non-certified alternatives, particularly in industries where compliance and quality are paramount. This not only increases our revenue but also solidifies FBU’s position as a premium supplier in the global market.
FBU’s success in obtaining the EAC certification is a strategic move to enhance our position in the global market. As part of the certification process, we have developed comprehensive technical documentation, including Russian-language manuals and production flow charts, which improves our internal quality management systems and ensures that our products meet the most rigorous standards.
Furthermore, participating in the feedback process for the TR CU 010/2011 regulations gives FBU a voice in shaping industry standards, positioning us as a leader in mechanical sealing technologies.
The EAC certification also mandates that FBU maintain complete and detailed technical documentation, which enhances our supply chain management. This certification not only streamlines communication with customers and suppliers but also reinforces our commitment to transparency and quality control throughout the production process.
In summary, obtaining the EAC certification for FBU’s mechanical seals brings numerous advantages, including easier market access, legal compliance, risk mitigation, and enhanced product quality assurance. This certification solidifies our reputation as a trusted, high-quality manufacturer, while also opening doors to new business opportunities in the EAEU region.
Looking ahead, FBU is excited about the continued opportunities that EAC certification will bring. With a strong foundation in compliance and performance, we are confident that this certification will help us expand our reach, strengthen our customer relationships, and drive future growth in the global market.
