Cable engineered for low friction and easy installation.
Hoowaki develops microtechnology for improved, functional surfaces on extruded products and processes. We reduce sliding friction, lower drag along the surface, and control surface tension, among other phenomenal capabilities. Using our proprietary technology, Hoowaki creates microstructured surfaces on industrial tooling to create micron-sized features on your polymer and metal surfaces. We serve customers in the medical, wire & cable, and materials industries.
Hoowaki's unique technology grew from the groundbreaking work of professor Wiliam P. King at the Nanoengineering Laboratory at the University of Illinois. This micromolding technology was born from the connection between microfabrication capabilities and industrial manufacturing, a rare combination that led microstructures out of the laboratory.
Located in Pendleton, SC, Hoowaki is surrounded by a network of Clemson University resources which support technology and innovation.
