Microencapsulation is our strength
Microtek specializes in the microencapsulation of phase change material. This process creates a tiny, microscopic container for the PCM where it is contained in a capsule during both its solid and liquid state.
Phase change material microcapsules can be incorporated directly onto textiles, into latex or PU foams, into adhesives, insulation and even polymers or plastics.
