Our Services

We provide a complete end-to-end service for silicone hose design, development, and production.

Every successful hose system starts with sound engineering. Drawing on decades of silicone hose design and manufacturing experience, Silflex partners with customers to develop hose solutions that satisfy strict performance requirements, integrate with complex assemblies, and deliver reliable long-term operation.

We offer a comprehensive in-house service, from bespoke hose design and reverse engineering to material selection, prototyping, and technical development, enabling customers to move confidently from concept to production.

Our engineering expertise, manufacturing knowledge, and testing capabilities help us identify challenges early, shorten development times, and deliver solutions engineered for performance, reliability, and manufacturability.

Bespoke Hose Design

Not every application can be solved using an off-the-shelf hose. Silflex specialises in designing bespoke silicone hose systems for applications that require custom-engineered solutions due to performance, space, operating conditions, or regulatory demands. We work closely with customers to develop hose systems made to their requirements, assuring optimal fit, performance, and lasting reliability.

CAD & Technical Development

Effective product development starts with accurate engineering data. Our CAD and technical development capabilities transform concepts, sketches, and requirements into fully engineered hose solutions. Through detailed modelling and collaboration, we help customers reduce risk, accelerate timelines, and achieve maximum performance.

Material Specification Support

Material selection is critical to hose operation and endurance, and our engineers help customers select the most suitable silicone compounds, reinforcement materials, and construction methods for their application, securing optimal performance throughout the product lifecycle.

Reverse Engineering

When original design data is unavailable, reverse engineering offers a fast and effective way to develop replacement or improved hose solutions. Our skilled engineering team assesses existing components, captures critical design characteristics, and develops replacement hose systems that match or exceed original performance.

Prototype Development

Moving from concept to production requires confidence in performance. With Silflex’s prototype development service, customers can evaluate designs, validate concepts, and refine solutions before full-scale manufacturing, reducing risk and accelerating product development.
