No future without a past. No innovation without experience.
We dare to try new things and regularly launch challenging projects to develop pioneering, forward-looking technologies. Only with the appropriate commitment and a good dose of motivation can we make our technological contribution to keeping European industry competitive.
We develop specialities for you according to your requirements and give components and surfaces outstanding properties. Application experts will quickly recognise that these are pioneering and technologically valuable developments.
We offer you two product lines – siloptics® & silmade® – in order to do justice to their value, whereby both product lines can also be combined with each other.
Digital printing
on silicone
High-quality multi-colour printing on flexible surfaces including protective coating for long-lasting products
Glass look with
3D depth effect
Transparent plastic parts with 3D decoration on the back and scratch protection on the front create glass look effects
Splinter-free
PVD coatings
PVD coatings for decorative parts and logos on safety-relevant components, especially around airbags in the steering wheel
Selective coatings in 3D
Combination of different finishing processes – printing, lacquer, PVD – on one component
silmade®
silmade® products primarily have functional properties.
Some of our specialities include:
- silmade® Hard Coat: An anti-scratch coating that has similar surface properties to glass.
- silmade® NCVM: Electrically high-resistance coatings have little or no influence on electromagnetic waves from radio, inductive charging, capacitive sensors and radar sensors.
- silmade® Low Friction Coating: Friction reduction and abrasion-resistant protection of silicone surfaces – antibacterial and bio-compatible if required.
- silmade® SilkFeel: Silky-soft feel of silicone with simultaneous bio-compatibility, less susceptibility to dirt and dust and reduced friction.
silmade® Low Friction
Changing the surface friction of silicone moulded parts for functional and decorative applications
silmade® NCVM
Electrically non-conductive decorative metallisation for radio, sensor and charging applications
silmade® Hard Coat scratch-resistant coating
Innovative coating systems for perfect and high-quality 2D and 3D plastic surfaces
siloptics®
The siloptics® product series includes the word “Optics” in the product name alongside the abbreviation “Sil” (for Silcos). “Optics” is again a reference to an optical and visual refinement of the surface.
Some of our specialities include:
- siloptics® Chrome
- siloptics® Black Chrome
- siloptics® Titan
- siloptics® Rose Gold
- siloptics® Flexilight
These surfaces turn your products into real design highlights!
siloptics®-Black Chrome
and other PVD colours
Plastic components with a wafer-thin layer of real metal
siloptics® Flexilight homogeneous fibre-optics
Flexible, wide-area fibre-optics with homogeneous illumination and integrated switching function
Your project too!
Are you looking for a solution tailored to your needs?
Deceptively real: siloptics® PVD
Elegant metal look for plastic surfaces. Brilliant, exclusive and functional. Our coating solution not only gives plastics and elastomers a high-quality look, but also outstanding technical properties for a wide range of applications.
