RESEARCH

 

AND

 

DEVELOPMENT



Product development is an activity at the forefront of our growth strategy. At Strikolith we recognise that the quality of the products is what differentiates us from our competitors and that the low cost option is not necessarily what our customers are after. Taking a simple case study, our research laboratory investigated the properties of silicone thin coats.

 

The conclusion from the research indicated that the recommended silicone content to achieve the required properties in the product was 9%, hence our product was modified to ensure that it met this requirement. Study of competitor products showed as little as 4% content, which simply will not meet the requirements of the market. It is this type of ethos which the company is built upon and will ensure customers continue to use our products.
