SERVICES OFFERED BY THE ASSET

Development of metallic coatings for plastic components/substrates

Coating formulation and development for plastic substrates to enhance decorative aspects and environmental protection. A cleaning pilot line/System is also implemented for previous preparation of industrial components to be coated via PVD.

Development of solar selective coatings (SSC) for industrial collectors and solar reflectors

Pilot plant for design, development and production of selective coatings for collector tubes up to 4 meters long

Development of tribological coatings for mechanical coatings working under conventional and severe conditions

Development of tribological coatings based on DLC, ZrNC, TiN, AlCrN, etc. for a wide range of industrial applications. The Hippins Technology is applied at industrial level to enhance adhesión and tribological properties of conventional PVD coatings.
