SCI Engineered Materials

Day 1 has kicked off for SVC Techcon 2026! We are looking forward to another great conference this year in Long Beach!

Two conferences in one week! Please stop by Booth # 1022 in Washington DC for . We are also in Long Beach for the annual SVC Techcon Conference. Please stop by Booth # 413. We look forward to catching up with you at one of these shows!

After 25 incredible years, we're bidding a fond farewell to our CFO, Gerald "Jerry" Blaskie. Jerry's leadership helped shape SCI's financial strength and set the stage for our continued growth. Thank you for everything, Jerry — enjoy a well-earned retirement! 🎉
