What ilicon does

ilicon (legal entity ili-Con P.C.) is a Greek privately-held engineering and technical consulting company founded around 2005 and headquartered in Pallini, Attica, with a branch office in Kilkis (Stavrochori Industrial Area). The firm specializes in the design, fabrication, supply, and installation of fire-resistant glazed window, door, partition, and curtain-wall systems for the building envelope, alongside technical consulting services covering energy efficiency, aesthetics, safety, and passive fire protection for transparent building elements. Its core product line covers fire resistance classes E, EW, and EI with ratings up to 120 minutes, in both aluminum and steel constructions, certified to European standards EN 13501-2 and EN 16034.

ilicon operates a vertically integrated model through its wholly-owned manufacturing division TALOS METALLBAU, which achieved EN 16034 Certificate of Constancy of Performance under AVCP System 1 in July 2021 — a third-party-monitored regime that enables CE marking for fire-resistant external doorsets and windows. Beyond its proprietary TALOS aluminum and Pyrosteel steel lines, ilicon distributes complementary premium third-party product lines including Forster/Schüco steel systems, Sky-Frame frameless sliding windows, Pellini and ScreenLine motorized blinds, SWISSPACER warm-edge spacers, Saint-Gobain glass, Lunax frameless fire-rated doors, and Aluprof aluminum systems, allowing it to act as a single-source specification partner for architects and developers.

The company operates a B2B sales-led model with direct enterprise field sales targeting architects, main contractors, developers, and project owners during construction and renovation phases, supported by industry-event participation (ZAK World of Façades, ELIPYKA, Oikodomi) and thought-leadership content. Revenue is project-based and quote-driven, with pricing dependent on square meters installed, fire-resistance class, material choice, and project complexity. Customer segments are diversified across commercial real estate, healthcare, hospitality, transport infrastructure (metro, airports), banking, cultural/government, and pharmaceutical enterprises, with marquee clients including Pfizer, Roche Hellas, Noval Properties, Dimand, AKTOR, Grand Hyatt Athens, the National Gallery, Attiko Metro, and Fraport-Intrakat. Operating geographies are primarily Greece with selective international delivery into Cyprus and Israel.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Others

• GEZE: GEZE is a specialist in door and window hardware, drives and smoke evacuation systems, and a strategic training partner of ilicon. It is an ecosystem enabler rather than a direct competitor in fire-rated glazing.

Broad incumbents

• Promat (Etex Group): Promat is a major passive fire protection specialist providing fire-rated glass, boards and systems for building envelopes. It competes more broadly than ilicon across structural fire protection but overlaps in fire-rated glazed systems.
• Schott (Fire-rated glass): Schott manufactures PYRAN and other fire-rated glasses used in fire-resistant windows and façades. It competes indirectly with ilicon through its glass supply for certified systems.

Direct peers

• Reynaers Aluminium: Reynaers is a leading European aluminum systems manufacturer offering fire-rated façade solutions. It competes directly with TALOS METALLBAU aluminum systems for commercial and high-rise projects in Southern Europe.
• Vetrotech Saint-Gobain: Vetrotech Saint-Gobain supplies fire-rated glass used in fire-resistant windows, doors and curtain walls. ilicon complements this through its own glazing systems, making Vetrotech both a supplier and competitor in the fire-rated glazing ecosystem.
• Jansen (by ArcelorMittal): Jansen produces steel fire-resistant window, door and curtain wall systems widely used across Europe. It competes with ilicon's Pyrosteel product line in the steel fire-rated fenestration segment.
• Schüco (Forster Profile Systems): Schüco's Forster steel fire-resistant window, door and curtain wall systems are distributed in Greece by ilicon. Forster is the dominant European fire-rated steel fenestration brand and is the most direct product-level competitor and principal partner.
• Hörmann: Hörmann is a leading European manufacturer of fire-rated doors, frames and partitions. It competes with ilicon's Pyrosteel and TALOS door product lines for commercial, industrial and infrastructure projects.
• Aluprof: Aluprof is a major European manufacturer of fire-rated aluminum window and door systems, also offered through ilicon's catalogue. It competes with ilicon's TALOS METALLBAU aluminum fire-resistant line in the Greek commercial construction market.

Regional players

• Alumil: Alumil is a Greek-headquartered aluminum systems producer with regional Balkan and Mediterranean reach. It competes with TALOS METALLBAU in the broader aluminum fenestration market and could enter fire-rated systems more aggressively.
