Who we are.
From PVD coating to stripping, polishing and blasting, we coordinate surface treatment steps for your component. Its material, loads and required properties determine the wear protection solution.
For new requirements, we investigate coatings and processes in trials. Evaluation shows which adjustments are needed and how a solution can be transferred to production.
