1. Kitchen Silicone Spatulas
Kitchen spatulas are used for stirring sauces, folding batters, and scraping cookware. They are flexible yet heat-resistant, making them essential tools for both cooking and baking.
Key Features
Made from food-grade silicone that is odorless, non-toxic, and safe for direct food contact.
Excellent non-stick and high-heat performance (typically up to 260°C).
One-piece seamless design prevents food buildup and bacterial growth.
Reinforced inner structure provides a better grip and improved durability.
Applications
Ideal for home kitchens, bakeries, food factories, and catering services.
Manufacturing Process
Material Preparation: Food-grade silicone rubber is mixed with color masterbatch and curing agents.
Molding: The mixture is injection- or compression-molded into spatula molds.
Curing: The spatula is vulcanized at a high temperature (170–200°C) to ensure strength and elasticity.
Finishing: Edges are trimmed, and surfaces are polished for smoothness.
Assembly (Optional): Some models include a stainless steel or nylon core handle for added strength.
Testing: Each batch is tested to ensure BPA-free, LFGB, and FDA compliance.
2. Cosmetic Silicone Spatulas
Cosmetic spatulas are smaller, softer, and designed for mixing, scooping, or applying skincare products such as masks and creams.
Key Features
Made from skin-safe or medical-grade silicone to prevent irritation.
Extra-soft edges allow smooth application without scratching the skin.
Resistant to cosmetic oils, serums, and alcohol-based formulations.
Reusable, easy to clean, and sterilizable.
Applications
Used in beauty salons, cosmetic manufacturing, and personal skincare routines.
Manufacturing Process
Material Selection: Hypoallergenic silicone with high purity is used.
Color Mixing: Soft pastel or transparent tones are blended using cosmetic-safe pigments.
Molding: Silicone is shaped through precision molds using Liquid Injection Molding (LIM) technology.
Surface Treatment: Polished or coated for enhanced softness and shine.
Quality Check: Each item is tested for flexibility, oil resistance, and smooth edges to ensure skin comfort.
3. Industrial Silicone Spatulas
Industrial silicone spatulas are designed for applying adhesives, resins, and coatings. They are tougher and more chemically resistant than standard kitchen spatulas.
Key Features
Made from high-hardness, reinforced silicone or silicone blended with fiberglass.
Resistant to solvents, epoxies, oils, and heat.
Strong edges allow precise spreading of thick materials.
Long-lasting and reusable for production lines.
Applications
Used in factories, electronics, automotive, and composite manufacturing.
Manufacturing Process
Material Preparation: Silicone rubber is mixed with reinforcing fillers such as silica or fiberglass.
Compression Molding: The material is pressed into molds under high pressure to achieve solid hardness.
Post-Curing: Baked in ovens (180–220°C) to enhance chemical stability and solvent resistance.
Surface Coating: Optional Teflon or anti-stick coatings are applied for easier cleaning.
Inspection: Ensures uniform thickness and precise edges for industrial consistency.
4. Laboratory and Medical Silicone Spatulas
These spatulas are designed for precise and sterile applications such as mixing chemicals, handling samples, or preparing pharmaceuticals.
Key Features
Made from medical-grade silicone compliant with USP Class VI or ISO 10993 standards.
Resistant to alcohol, acids, alkalis, and autoclave sterilization.
Seamless one-piece construction prevents bacterial contamination.
Reusable after repeated cleaning and disinfection.
Applications
Used in laboratories, hospitals, and biotech facilities for sample handling, mixing reagents, or applying ointments.
Manufacturing Process
Raw Material Selection: High-purity medical-grade silicone pellets are chosen.
Molding Process: Liquid silicone is molded using LIM (Liquid Injection Molding) under sterile conditions.
Vulcanization: Controlled curing ensures biocompatibility and elasticity.
Post-Cleaning: Ultrasonic cleaning removes residues and ensures surface purity.
Sterilization: Products are autoclaved or gamma-sterilized.
