Transmission is important at APS

As part of a business conference, Damien, our Materials Engineer, returned to his old school to speak with MTX4 and MTX5 students from Polytech Sorbonne – Materials Specialty.

The opportunity to exchange on dry coatings, laser innovations and to share on the practical applications of the courses given to these future engineers.

Thanks to Guillaume Mériguet and Alban Ferrier for organizing this day and for their hospitality.


Special water-based coating with APS

APS is always on the lookout for high-performance coatings that reduce the impact on the environment. Thus, we are qualified by several contractors for the application of Surf-Kote LOB-1800-G, a water-based lubricating coating.

After curing, this coating has lubricating properties at temperatures ranging from 370-760°C.

It is especially recommended for applications where other dry film lubricants containing molybdenum disulfide and/or Teflon are not acceptable.


Energy diagnosis at APS

APS called on NALDEO to carry out a study in conjunction with ADEME on its direct and indirect energy-related emissions.

Objective: to define an energy master plan for the Ile de France and Aquitaine sites and set up a decarbonization roadmap for early 2023.

A firm commitment by APS to reduce its environmental impact and which will contribute to achieving France’s objective of carbon neutrality by 2050.

New salt spray equipment

Something new and foggy

APS has acquired brand new equipment for salt spray testing.

Located in a dedicated location on our Noisiel site, the new equipment allows a standardized evaluation of the corrosion resistance of the coated parts of our customers and partners.

Beyond the surface, it’s your performance that we are looking for.


Anti-friction solutions at APS

At APS Coatings, the safety of your equipment is central to our concerns.

Thanks to our anti-friction coating applied to this adjustment screw, jet pilots can adjust their seat easily.

Our Nuflon GBT coating prevents any seizing and thus improves safety in your cockpits for the long term.
