U.S.-based surface treatment provider Chemeon Surface Technology (Minden, Nevada) and globally operating surface technology specialist The SurTec Group (Bensheim, Germany) have formed a strategic alliance to expand market access and support the effective use of each partner’s high-performance and sustainable surface treatment solutions worldwide.
The alliance brings together complementary regional strengths: while Chemeon expands access to selected SurTec surface treatment solutions in the U.S. market, SurTec will offer Chemeon products internationally, supporting customers with local technical expertise and established infrastructure.
As global regulations continue to increase and promote the phasing out and discontinued use of hexavalent chrome, the partnership expands the availability of the MIL-DTL 81706B qualified (QPL) chemistries, Chemeon’s patented eTCP trivalent corrosion protection — with its signature purple/violet visual indicator — and the SurTec 650 series of trivalent chemistries.
Key elements of the strategic alliance include:
- Integration of SurTec’s U.S. operations with Chemeon’s Center of Technical Excellence in Nevada, serving as a satellite hub for sales activities and advanced training in trivalent conversion coating and anodizing.
- Cross-training of sales and technical teams to ensure aligned recommendations and consistent customer support.
- Joint activities in R&D, analytical testing and coordinated marketing initiatives, including technical webinars and participation in industry trade shows.
As part of Freudenberg Chemical Specialties, SurTec operates globally with subsidiaries in 22 countries.
