Intelligent pre-treatment with PreCoat CPF; sustainable and efficient
Van Maren Coating recently switched to PreCoat CPF.
an Maren Coating B.V. is a multi-metal powder coating company. Whether steel, aluminium, zinc, etc., no job is too big or too small. For example, the company coats hinges for glasses, car bodies and information pillars. The company’s motto is: ‘We can coat anything made of metal with colour,’ says Nick van Maren (manager). The coating can often be applied within a few days. Van Maren Coating recently switched to PreCoat CPF.
The decision for AD Chemicals
AD is a service-oriented company with targeted solutions. Nick explains: ‘If we have a question, we always get a quick answer, and if we have any doubts about a bath, the experts at AD Chemicals are often available to measure the bath on the same day. That’s why AD is our go-to supplier for chemical products.’
Van Maren Coating was faced with an investment decision. Nick explains: “The previous chemical process had corroded our tanks and pipes. So we had to invest in order to continue. We then looked for new technologies, which we found in PreCoat CPF. The pipes were replaced and the tanks cleaned to ensure a good start with the product.
The most important advantage is that we can use PreCoat CPF at around 35 °C, whereas our previous chemical process (conventional iron phosphating) only worked optimally at temperatures between 60 °C and 65 °C. As the temperature in our production hall is often already around 34 °C, we hardly need any additional heating to keep the bath at the right temperature. This saves us around €1,500 per month.
Nick continues with his experiences with AD: “Since PreCoat CPF is multi-metal, we can use the process for almost all materials we coat, such as steel, aluminium and stainless steel. This means we need fewer baths and can produce faster. Another advantage is that PreCoat CPF degreases excellently..
