We support a diverse range of coating processes - from oxy-fuel processes that produce a hard or wear resistant surface on a metal component to laboratory coaters.

Products

• Scientific mixtures – for laboratory coaters.
• Acetylene – for thermal spraying and carbon coating in moulds.
• Propylene – for thermal spraying.
• Helium – for cold spraying.
• Nitrogen – for cold spraying and fibre coating.
• Carbon dioxide – for thermal and plasma spraying and fibre coating.

Industries

• Electronics – scientific gases to enable deposition of thin film metallic and dielectric coatings.
• Fibre Optics – high quality gases and systems for cold spraying, laboratory coaters and surface treatment.
• Glass – Acetylene for carbon coating in float glass and bottles and containers.
• Automotive – high quality gases and systems for thermal spraying and cold spraying on components and body parts.  Also used for plasma coating of valves.
• Defence and Aerospace – plasma spraying systems for components such as jet engines and thermal spraying.
• General Fabrication and Shipbuilding – gases for thermal and plasma spraying.
• Laboratories and Research – scientific mixtures and high purity gases for deposition and purging in coaters.
• Healthcare – carbon dioxide for plasma coating of implants.

Services

• Process audits – specialist advice on procedures and products to increase productivity, improve product quality and improve cost-effectiveness.
• Customer safety audits – to identify unsafe work practices and recommend appropriate control measures.
• Safety training – staff training in safe handling of gases on the shop floor and in the laboratory.
