New coating systems, sustainable processes and digital automation are changing the surface technology industry. According to trade fair organizer Deutsche Messe AG, the aim is to develop durable, environmentally friendly and cost-efficient solutions. At SurfaceTechnology GERMANY, which takes place from May 5 - 7 in Stuttgart, companies will be showcasing products, solutions and innovations that will shape the future of surface technology.
Ways to reduce the ecological footprint
Companies are increasingly focusing on environmentally friendly processes. Innovative coating technologies that consume fewer resources and are less polluting are the focus of research. Recycling concepts for chemical substances and waste are also being developed in order to further minimize the environmental impact.
Technical challenges
Despite these advances, surface technicians still face major challenges. The development of durable, resistant coatings that are also environmentally friendly requires highly complex research work. It is also important to make production processes more efficient in order to reduce costs and increase sustainability. The integration of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation contribute to this.
