Marco Acquires Rocket Seals, Inc., Adding a 70-Year Legacy to Its Growing Platform

Marco Sealing Solutions is proud to announce the acquisition of the assets of Rocket Seals, Inc., a Denver-based independent distributor specializing in O-rings and sealing products for MRO and OEM customers across North America. The addition deepens Marco’s capabilities and extends its reach across a wide range of industrial end markets.

A Legacy Built on Getting It Right

Founded in 1956, Rocket Seals has spent nearly 70 years earning the trust of customers across some of the most demanding industries in the world — fluid power, aerospace, oil & gas, medical equipment, food & beverage, water treatment, and heavy equipment. Their tenured team of sealing specialists is known for deep product knowledge, broad inventory, and same-day shipping capabilities that customers have come to depend on.

“The Rocket Seals name is synonymous with 70 years of getting customers the right sealing solution, fast,” said Dave Hanson, owner of Rocket Seals. “Marco shares that commitment, and now our customers gain the resources and reach of an industry leader, delivered with the personal, hands-on service that defines the Marco experience.”

Why Rocket Seals

When Marco evaluates acquisition partners, the question isn’t simply about market coverage or product overlap. It’s about the quality of customer relationships — specifically, whether customers rely on that company not just for product, but for expertise and problem-solving.

Rocket Seals has built exactly that kind of reputation over seven decades.

“When looking for acquisition partners, we get excited about companies that customers genuinely rely on, not just for product, but for guidance and problem-solving,” said Chad Smith, CEO of Marco. “Rocket Seals has been that kind of partner to its customers for generations. That’s exactly the kind of expertise we want to build on.”

Rocket Seals also serves many of the same end markets and product categories as Marco, creating natural synergies in coverage, inventory depth, and technical expertise across the platform.

What This Means for Customers

For Rocket Seals customers, joining the Marco platform means access to greater product breadth, global sourcing infrastructure, and advanced digital capabilities — without sacrificing the personal, expert-driven service they’ve always received.

For Marco customers, it means a stronger platform with deeper specialist knowledge, expanded inventory, and broader reach across industrial end markets.

A Platform Built to Lead

This acquisition is the latest step in Marco’s continued growth through a combination of organic investment and strategic acquisitions, each chosen to strengthen its ability to deliver world-class technical expertise, product availability, and value-added services to customers worldwide.

Marco was founded in 1980 as Marco Rubber & Plastics and has since evolved into Marco Sealing Solutions — a global provider of high-performance specialty rubber, plastic, and metal components. Today, Marco leverages innovative technology to help customers quickly source their most demanding sealing and precision components, backed by engineering expertise, global sourcing capabilities, and best-in-class service.

The addition of Rocket Seals is another important step in Marco becoming the industry-leading sealing solutions partner customers across North America turn to first.

We’re proud to welcome Rocket Seals to the platform.
