Coatings for the Automotive / Railway sector
New coatings to support an evolving industry
The transportation industry faces many challenges. APS helps you improve fuel efficiencywhile providing an exceptional driving experience by reducing noise and friction with non-stick coatings. Similarly, we are supporting the transition to electric or hybrid vehicles with coatings with electrical insulation or conductivity properties.
Our strengths:
- Our tier-1 referencing with demanding customers and our industry certifications allow us to be part of programs such as Formula 1
- A zinc flake dip-spin process for the anti-corrosion treatment of large volumes of parts with reception mats allowing good separation of each part
- Many solutions offering electrical properties in paint spray or thermal spray
