Manufacture of silicone mouldings with functional and decorative surface refinement
We produce silicone mouldings in series. Our oatings combine high quality design and functional applications.
With our wide ranging design & services spectrum, we deliver finished parts from a single source.
Silicone mouldings series production
We produce customised and sophisticated silicone mouldings by injection moulding. Silicone mouldings
Decorative surface refinement
Painting and decorative surface coating of silicone mouldings. Decorative coatings
Functional surfaces
High quality surface modification for a wide variety of requirements. Friction reduction, anti-static and silk-feel surfaces.
Printing & etching
Durable and high quality pad printing, screen printing, digital printing and laser etching, directly on silicone.
Silcos is your complete solution provider for silicone and surfaces
The entire value chain - from the silicone mould to the finished component
Before the project
Our team of experts will be at your side with advice and assistance starting from before the actual production of your silicone component. Our advice is based on the expertise of experienced specialists and the prudence of professionals.

Surfaces on silicone
Silicone surfaces with added value
Today, surfaces of silicone mouldings are subject to demanding tasks - even complex three dimensional geometries are used for decoration, which need to have certain visual properties.
At the same time the surfaces must fulfil specific functions: be slippery or electrically conductive, dirt repellent, resistant to environmental influences and abrasion, etc. - all in hot and cold conditions of course.
We offer you both – oisually high quality design surfaces combined with functional properties. From painting and PVD metallisation to day/night design to closed user interfaces, the possibilities are almost unlimited.
Printing and etching
Perfect finish on silicone surfaces
In addition to the desired properties and functions of a silicone surface, the design also plays a major role. With different methods, which are adapted to the silicone part, we produce visually high quality surfaces. Our portfolio ranges from pad printing to screen and digital printing to laser etching
We also offer you a combination of different processes. This results in a variety of products - all from a single source.
Flexible light guides
Luminous highlights on silicone bodies
Luminous surfaces play a significant role in modern decorative and informational surfaces such as in vehicle interiors. Due to complex geometries or lack of space, developers are constantly faced with challenges in the implementation of design requirements.
With the iloptics® Flexilight we have developed a novel solution concept for flat light guides in confined spaces..
For the new development, we have used the positive properties of the material silicone and optimised it for the application by means of specially developed manufacturing processes and surface treatments.
The Siloptics® Flexilightis particularly suitable for applications that require flexible or soft optical fibres due to movement or the required impact protection. As silicone does not turn yellow and can withstand higher temperatures than for example polycarbonate, the Flexilight is also ideal for applications with high temperature requirements.
