Welcome to SilFORT, where innovation meets durability. Our advanced functional coatings are designed to transform the use of lightweight plastics in demanding construction applications. By replacing traditional glass and metal with high-performance plastics, architects, engineers, and contractors can achieve superior results in windows, walls, facades, and roofs.

Key Features and Benefits

Superior scratch and abrasion resistance

  • Our functional coatings are engineered to withstand rigorous use, offering exceptional protection against scratches and abrasions. This ensures that your surfaces remain in excellent condition even in high-traffic areas.

Long-lasting high-gloss finish

  • SilFORT functional coatings provide a sleek, high-gloss finish that maintains its brilliance over time. This durable finish enhances the aesthetic appeal of your materials, making them look new for longer.

Robust chemical resistance

  • Designed to resist a wide array of chemicals and solvents, SilFORT functional coatings protect your plastics from potential damage caused by harsh substances, ensuring their longevity and reliability.

Outstanding weatherability

  • Our coatings are built to endure the elements. SilFORT functional coatings resist UV radiation, rain, and extreme temperatures, ensuring materials continue to perform well regardless of weather conditions.

Transparent protection

  • The transparent nature of SilFORT functional coatings allows the original properties of plastics—such as color and light transmission—to shine through while providing a protective layer that enhances durability.

Weight reduction benefits

  • By allowing the use of lightweight plastics, SilFORT functional coatings enable significant reductions in material weight. This not only facilitates easier handling and installation, but can also lead to cost savings and innovative design possibilities.

Long-lasting protective layer

  • The functional coatings create a durable shield that protects your materials from environmental wear and tear, extending their lifespan and reducing the need for maintenance.

Enhanced durability

  • SilFORT functional coatings reinforce the physical properties of plastics, making them more resistant to impacts and everyday wear. This increased durability makes them ideal for demanding applications.

Flexible design opportunities
