FLITE Material Sciences

About

FLITE Material Sciences was created to undertake a new generation of surface engineering by licensing brilliant new technology from university labs and bringing them to commercial viability and industrial scale. Our surface functionalization techniques transform industrial materials to repel or attract liquids, creating products that resist ice, rust and fouling without using chemical coatings.

Laser surface functionalization

Using pulsed femtosecond lasers in a patented technique to sculpt the surface of materials and create a microscopic functional texture. Each texture type has a function, to create superhydrophobic, hydrophilic, oleophobic, oleophilic or aerophobic effects, or change the color of the material. The effect is permanent, durable, and works on a variety of metal, glass, plastic and ceramic surfaces.
