Powering your success

We’ve been there from the beginning of commercial gas turbine flight, where we helped major engine manufacturers meet demanding operational conditions and find ways to make jet engines fly longer between overhauls. Today, there are thousands of parts for which our coatings are included in OEM specifications from General Electric to Pratt & Whitney to Rolls-Royce.

Customized solutions for every part

Whatever the problem, we have a coating solution for it. Below are some common problems that affect engine components. For us, each problem is a unique event, requiring a unique answer. Rather than forcing a standard solution, we’re interested in making more possible. That’s why we’ll work directly with you to understand your unique challenge and find the solution that gets you more performance from your parts and equipment.
