Beautiful appearance:
plastic surfaces that look like real metal. Brilliant, elegant, high-quality, exclusive.
High-quality design and functionality: Discover siloptics® PVD technology – a result of our innovative strength and expertise. This advanced coating solution not only gives plastics and elastomers an elegant metallic look, but also offers outstanding technical properties for a wide range of applications.
Of all our five senses, the eye has the most to do. This is because around 70% of the stimuli that are processed in the human brain are visual. How we perceive the world depends largely on how we see it or what we see. And we are particularly fascinated by beauty. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but according to neuroscience it also follows certain laws. For example, symmetry plays an important role when it comes to attractiveness, or think of the golden ratio in art and photography. Industries with high aesthetic standards, such as the automotive and consumer goods industries, invest a lot of time, money and energy in the design of their products. And that’s where we come in.
Look.
Metallic-looking, brilliant surfaces are pleasing to the eye. We have developed a process that gives plastics and elastomers a high-quality metallic look: Physical Vapour Deposition, siloptics® PVDfor short. This enables us to apply wafer-thin layers of metal even to flexible materials such as an airbag trim ring. In addition to the traditional chrome or stainless steel looks, the trend is moving towards exclusive colours with a precious metal touch: champagne, bronze, sky blue or pale pink, from silk matt to high gloss. Every design wish is possible! The innovative PVD technology not only enhances the appearance of vehicle interiors, but also of all lifestyle products such as lamps, cosmetics, fashion and more. But the look is only one thing – PVD can do more. How about functional properties?
Feel.
In addition to the visual design specifications, very special technical qualities are often required. Applications that are resistant to chemicals and UV light, that are immune to wear and tear such as abrasion or scratches, that do not shield electromagnetic radiation, that are backlit and can therefore be used in day-night designs or that are simply particularly soft to the touch. Our aim is to turn your visions into reality and provide you with an end product that impresses in terms of design and functionality. The siloptics® PVD colours are precisely matched to individual requirements while retaining the finest haptic details. Whether it’s automotive buttons, baby bottles or trainers – our PVD technology sets completely new standards in every sector and industry and opens up a wealth of new possibilities.
Talk.
So, is your brain bursting with new ideas right now? Then let’s talk! We are your sparring partner for the development of innovative solutions that the world has never seen before. With siloptics® PVD, you can significantly increase the desirability and attractiveness of your products and ultimately sell them at a higher price. The beautiful appearance is not deceptive, but rather reveals a new dimension of quality.
