Eco-friendly, chrome-free coil pretreatment prior to coating

Coil pretreatment processes can be applied in many ways. Select the optimum process from our product portfolio to suit the substrate, the application technology and the intended use of the pretreated coil material. This includes no-rinse or dry-in-place processes as well conventional pretreatment technologies such as alkaline oxidation, chromating or zinc-phosphating.

Modern systems already concentrate on eco-friendly, chrome-free product solutions. Major efforts in recent years have been focused on the development of completely metal-free innovations in order to meet future legislative requirements.

Effective galvanizing for long-term protection

Whether is it for building facades, garage doors or car bodies – top-quality and effective galvanizing is needed to protect the appearance and to provide a durable and long lasting protective coating.
