Reflecting on 2025: SilcoTek's Achievements and Exciting Plans for 2026

Written by Kayla DeSoto | December 26 2025

As the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to reflect on the work we’ve accomplished together and to thank the customers, partners, representatives, and vendors who trust and support SilcoTek to improve our most demanding applications.

Throughout 2025, we worked alongside engineers and technical teams across industries to solve real-world challenges involving corrosion, fouling, material compatibility, and process purity. From improving component longevity in aggressive chemical environments to enhancing cleanliness in critical flow paths, our coatings continue to help systems operate more reliably and efficiently. Each application reinforces what drives our work: applying advanced surface coatings to enhance performance where it matters most.

Looking ahead, 2026 is shaping up to be an exciting year for SilcoTek. We are preparing to formally launch a coating technology designed for hydrophobicity performance, non-stick properties, and durability requirements. Built on years of development and customer feedback, this upcoming release represents a meaningful step forward in how surface modification can support next-generation processes and equipment. More details will be shared in the coming months, so stay tuned! 

We also have BIG new capacity enhancements coming in the new year. We have expanded our capabilities to apply our coatings to more applications. We will reveal our newest capabilities at the beginning of 2026. Can you guess what it is from the image below?

Innovation doesn’t happen in isolation. It comes from collaboration, understanding process conditions, evaluating materials, and tailoring coating solutions to meet exact specifications. Whether supporting semiconductor manufacturing, analytical instrumentation, energy systems, or life science applications, we’re proud to be a technical partner our customers can rely on for both expertise and execution.

As the holiday season approaches, we’re grateful for the relationships that make this work possible and for the challenges that push us to continually improve. From all of us at SilcoTek, we wish you a peaceful holiday season, time to recharge, and continued success in the year ahead.
