Coolant is all we do.
For 26 years.

SELTEC began in 2000 as a lubricant distributor, went on to manufacture metalworking fluids, and then moved into the equipment that manages them. Today we design and build systems for every stage of coolant use on the shop floor, from mixing and supply through concentration control and filtration to spent coolant recycling.
