Our History

Silflex has grown from the base provided by the original company, Vale Polymers, which held an enviable reputation from its wholehearted service to customers both large and small. In January 1991, Vale Polymers joined the Birmingham based Currie & Warner Group, a major force in the manufacture of brass turned parts, flexible steel tubing and gas appliance connector hose.

Silflex’s headquarters and main manufacturing plant is based in South Wales. The multi-million pound, purpose built factory, which also houses the Samco Sport brand, is a true monument of the company’s progression has enabled the company to rapidly grow, increasing manpower, and also holds huge potential for future development, enabling the company to cope with any future expansions.

With the combination of Silflex’s technical expertise and experience together with the financial and management resources available within the Currie & Warner Group, Silflex has been able to undertake a programme of investment in new facilities and techniques, enabling it to keep in the forefront of development to meet the increasingly rigorous demands of the silicone hose market.
