Technology & Products

Key Products

Ceramic Foams; Ceramic Lattices; Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs); Assemblies; Silicon Carbide (SiC); Alumina (Al2O3); Zirconia (ZrO2); Carbon (C)

Technological Advantage

Proprietary know-how in ceramic material formulation and processing (e.g., liquid silicon infiltration) for applications in aggressive high-temperature environments; defensible through trade secrets and long-term R&D collaborations.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Provides custom-engineered ceramic materials that withstand extreme environments (high temperatures, aggressive chemicals), reducing component failure and maintenance costs while enabling lightweight, durable designs.

How They Differentiate

Focus on custom material solutions and R&D partnerships rather than mass production; expertise in ceramic foams/lattices and CMCs for niche high-temperature applications vs. broader technical ceramics from large incumbents.

Market & Competition

Target Customers

Industrial manufacturers in aerospace, aeronautics, chemical, thermo-technical, electrical, and renewable energy sectors requiring high-performance ceramic solutions.

Industry Verticals

Aerospace; Aeronautics; Chemical; Thermo-technical; Electrical; Renewable Energy

Competitors

CoorsTek; KYOCERA Corporation; CeramTec GmbH; 3DCERAM Sinto; Desktop Metal (ceramic binder jetting)
