Cleaners degreasers & paint stripper

Our cleaners provide not only convincing high cleaning power and ease of use, but also extraordinary sustainability. The use of cleaners increases effectiveness and reduces operating costs in the long term. Our range includes neutral, acidic and alkaline cleaners. Important areas of application include the cleaning of process fluids from metal components or the cleaning of sheet metal parts before corrosion protection application or the powder coating or cathodic dip painting process.

Pickling / etching solutions & inhibitors

Pickling is a surface treatment that is carried out in numerous production processes as a preparatory step for subsequent treatments. In pickling, corroded metal substrate is removed with a pickling solution, usually in liquid or gel form.

Pretreatment technologies for metals (corrosion protection and paint adhesion)

We offer numerous options for dip or spray conversion coating in metal pre-treatment processes. The comprehensive technology program covers conventional conversion coatings as well as the new generation of environmentally friendly coatings as an alternative to phosphating.
