What Sirtres does

Sirtres Srl a socio unico is an Italian plastics engineering company founded in 1983 in Muggiò (Province of Monza e Brianza), operating as a privately held, single-shareholder limited liability company. The company develops and supplies technical polymer (tecnopolimero) solutions for industrial customers across five application sectors: Converting, Textiles, Paper, Lifting, and Electrical/Electromechanical/Electronic. Its core product lines are SINVEX plastic sleeves used on calendering and embossing counter-rolls, and Teflon FEP / FEP HT heat-shrinkable sleeves that provide anti-adhesive, anti-corrosion, and high-temperature coverings for NIP rollers, coating rollers, transport rollers, and curved expanding (banana) rollers in high-speed converting lines.

The product portfolio is completed by the Mekton family of fire-safety-certified silicon sleeves (ST-DG) and tubing (AVHR), Mekton TFE 53 high-performance bushings for aggressive textile environments, polyurethane-coated rollers for abrasive paper lines, and fluorocarbonic and silicon coatings (including plasma-based) applied as aftermarket services. In June 2020 Sirtres extended its manufacturing capability with the BIG PARTS service, producing pre-formed or near-finished polymer components up to 300 kg using low-cost molds for medium and low production runs, addressing applications such as forklift wheel rims, cable winding drums, olive harvesting parts, pulleys, and military components. The Mekton products carry ISO 4589-2, ISO 5659-2, NF X 70-100, EN 45545-2 R22-R23, and UL 224 certifications, and the company holds ISO 9001:2015 and IIP certification.

Sirtres operates a direct B2B sales model via website, phone, and email, with a reserved customer portal and bilingual (Italian/English) web presence. Pricing is custom-quoted against specifications, quantities, and application requirements and is delivered under multi-year arrangements, with revenue derived from one-time product sales of polymer components and from professional coating services. No external funding rounds, subsidiaries, M&A activity, or named customer relationships are disclosed; the company self-funded a 2021 photovoltaic installation for energy self-generation.
