Our newest coating! A durable, inert, corrosion resistant coating that is harder than steel and highly resistant to acid and base attack. Ideal for valves and components that require a tough scratch resistant coating. Dursan is a hydrophobic surface that strongly repels water.
The ultimate in inert coating technology. Eliminate surface interaction in process, analytical, oil and gas sampling. Allow for fast accurate sampling the first time, every time. Improves test efficiency while reducing overall sampling/analytical cost.
A corrosion resistant coating that increases the lifetime of system components. Improve the corrosion performance of stainless steel, eliminate the use of costly high performance alloys while reducing component corrosion.
A non-stick coating designed to reduce the onset of carbon coking and fouling on stainless steel. Extend maintenance cycles in refining and petrochemical operations, improve engine and fuel delivery performance by reducing carbon build-up on fuel injectors and combustion surfaces.
A low outgassing, rapid pump down, high purity coating designed to improve ultra high vacuum system performance. Reduce vacuum pump-down cycle time, improve product yield by eliminating surface impurities.

SilcoTek, Green From The Start

SilcoTek, formerly Restek Performance Coatings, invented SilcoNert (Silcosteel®) in 1987. From the start our unique chemical vapor deposition process minimized waste and harmful emissions.

Today SilcoTek continues its green heritage by eliminating waste and emitting zero harmful emissions to the environment. Unlike other manufacturers who are promoting a green image or treating green like a fad, SilcoTek has evolved its green process through years of development and refinement.

What does green mean to SilcoTek? It means:

  • CFC-free procedures
  • Zero greenhouse gas emissions
  • Use of biodegradable products
  • Reuse of packaging
  • Facility-wide recycling
  • Ultra-modern, high efficiency facilities
  • High efficiency lighting

SilcoTek Processes, Green From Start To Finish

Other manufacturers speak in generalities when talking about their green process, at SilcoTek; we build green into our process, from start to finish!

Receiving

Customer parts are received for coating, customer boxes and packing materials are recycled or reused. Last year SilcoTek recycled 26 tons of cardboard, 28 tons of paper and 4 tons of glass.

Cleaning

SilcoTek uses only environmentally safe, bio-degradable cleaning solutions when preparing standard customer parts for coating. SilcoTek uses a water based soap and warm water to clean customer parts. Our discharge is ph neutral and meets all local, state and federal clean water regulations.

Coating

SilcoTek developed its own state of the art automated chemical vapor deposition process designed to emit ZERO greenhouse gases and ZERO CFC’s or other toxic chemicals. The SilcoTek process is so clean the only process by-products are water and sand! SilcoTek’s green process is not required to be monitored under state and federal clean air or water standards.

Packaging/Shipping

SilcoTek recycles customer containers where possible and uses bio-degradable and recyclable packaging materials.

Unlike other coating processes, SilcoTek is truly GREEN TECHNOLOGY!
