SurTec introduces PFAS-free solutions for functional coatings, such as precote® 85 PFAS-free for screw locking and precote® 15 for thread sealing. These technologies now offer formulations without PFAS, aligning with upcoming regulatory requirements and market demand.
precote® 85 PFAS-free maintains key performance characteristics such as defined friction, chemical resistance, and process reliability. precote® 15 ensures immediate sealing through a dry, elastic film, which is beneficial in various industrial applications — including use cases in battery housing assemblies.
The transition to PFAS-free formulations is not only driven by regulatory developments but also represents an opportunity to meet customer demand for compliant, high-performance coatings. SurTec continues to adapt proven technologies to meet changing requirements and supports customers in navigating regulatory complexity.
Working with industry partners like AVL Deutschland GmbH, SurTec ensures smooth integration of its solutions into existing production processes. The portfolio includes additional water-based, PFAS-free lubricants and sealants, enabling customers to take steps toward future-oriented manufacturing.
