MicroEncapsulation

Temperature Control is at the core of our expertise

Microencapsulation is our strength

Microtek specializes in the microencapsulation of phase change materials. This process creates a tiny, microscopic container for the PCMs where they are contained in a capsule during both their solid and liquid states.

Phase change material microcapsules can be incorporated directly onto textiles, into latex or PU foams, into adhesives, insulation and even polymers or plastics.
