Passivation I Anodization I Electroplating of medical equipment, medical furniture and medical tools

For passivation of aluminum, the replacement of Cr(VI)-based solutions is nothing new. Processes like SurTec 650 or Cr-free solutions are the benchmark. They are REACH and RoHS compatible. For the pre-treatment before coating or bonding, also phosphate replacements gets more popular to reduce sludge and improve process handling.

Anti-friction coatings for metals, plastics and elastomers

Bonded coatings ensure complete component coverage with a uniform, durable lubricant layer that minimizes friction and maintains consistent friction coefficients over time. The dry lubrication method prevents contamination, providing clean, efficient application and smooth, silent performance by eliminating stick-slip. Suitable for high and low temperatures, SurTec’s bonded coatings deliver reliable, lifetime lubrication across diverse applications, extending component lifespan with minimal maintenance.
