MetacoteTM Metallized EMI-ESD Shielding Solutions
For Defense and Space - Think Material
Precision. Protection. Performance.
As modern warfare and space missions become more technology-driven, electromagnetic interference (EMI) is emerging as a critical concern. Today’s defense and aerospace platforms are increasingly reliant on compact, high-density electronics — integrating AI processors, high-frequency sensors, satellite links, radar, and communications gear into smaller, mission critical platforms.
But with this advancement comes a sharp rise in electromagnetic interference (EMI) – both from within and from the environment. Even minor EMI can lead to signal loss or corruption, system malfunction or detection, and mission critical failure.
Unlike commercial electronics, the systems in defense and space require high-performance EMI shielding solutions that are lightweight, flexible or conformable, highly durable, and capable of maintaining performance over a wide frequency range, even under harsh conditions.
Yet, traditional shielding solutions haven’t kept up with these demands. They’re bulky, inflexible, and often suffer performance drop-offs at higher frequencies or under mechanical, thermal, or environmental stress. They can also be expensive and have longer lead times.
Metallized Solutions.
Built Different. Performs Better.
Metacote™ is a defense- and space-grade EMI shielding solution engineered to meet the most rigorous environmental, frequency, and mechanical demands. At its core is our proprietary metallization process, where a robust covalent bond is created between the substrate and 99.9% pure silver.
Silver—the most electrically conductive metal, enables exceptional EMI shielding performance, across a wide range of frequencies. The ability to custom produce various products based on specific applications brings that power at an affordable price point. It can be made into thin, flexible, and durable high-performance materials designed to withstand mechanical wear and extreme environmental stress.
This advanced metallization process can be applied to filament yarns, fabrics, polymeric foams, staple fibers, spun yarns, chopped fibers, and particles—offering exceptional versatility. Our yarns can be woven/ knitted into fabrics at different construction levels or can be metallized fully over the fabrics.
Apart from silver, we’ve also engineered multi metal combinations such as silver over nickel, copper-nickel metallization etc. This combines the strengths of multiple metals, metallized over one another enhancing the properties depending on application and ensuring compliance, durability, and weight optimization.
