Suitable for contact with foodstuffs (REG.EU 1935/2004 & FDA FOOD CONTACT)

Silicon Oxide coating is a colorless thin film a few micrometers thick which makes it possible to protect a variety of materials from resistance, corrosion and oxidation. The coating gives the treated parts good surface hardness and excellent resistance to atmospheric, chemical and organic agents. The treatment also makes the surfaces treated water repellent while leaving unchanged the chemical and physical characteristics of the details, even when subjected to humid and aggressive atmospheres.
