Selective and inline surface treatment with plasma technology.

About us

Plasmatreat is the international leader in the development and manufacture of atmospheric pressure plasma systems for the pretreatment of substrate surfaces. Whether plastic, metal, glass or paper - the industrial use of plasma technology modifies the properties of the surface in favor of the process requirements. Subsequent processes include bonding, painting, printing or gasketing. Openair-Plasma® technology is used in automated and continuous manufacturing processes in almost every industrial sector. Examples include the automotive, electronics, transportation, packaging, consumer goods and textile industry, but the technology, cost and environmental advantages of the plasma technology are used in medical technology and in the renewable energy sector as well. The Plasmatreat Group has technology centers in Germany, USA, Canada, China, and Japan. With its worldwide sales and service network, the company is represented in more than 30 countries by subsidiaries and sales partners.

    🇨🇭✨ Chocolate, watches, cheese… and smart golf balls? Yes, you can find them in Switzerland! 🏌️♂️⛳ Chip-ing AG has developed a true Swiss innovation: smart golf balls with an integrated GPS chip that shows players exactly where the ball lands after a shot. This helps avoid penalty strokes while reducing plastic waste in the rough. 🌱♻️ Learn more about Chip-ing: https://lnkd.in/eWa9jigr The balls are pretreated with Plasmatreat. Here’s the best part: the electricity for the Openair-Plasma® surface treatment comes from the company’s own solar power system – making the pretreatment CO₂-neutral. ☀️🌱 Today we captured this success story on film and in photos – from pretreatment to printing and packaging, all the way to the final preparations for our K – The World's No.1 Trade Fair for Plastics and Rubber Story. 🎥📸 Many thanks to Thomas Sandel (CEO of Chip-ing AG) and Klaus Kresser for the exciting insights and to Stefanie Morlok for the fantastic images (Contact Stefanie: https://lnkd.in/ebYEDauZ). #Plasmatreat #OpenairPlasma #Golf #Innovation #Sustainability #KTradeFair

  • 💡Expand your #knowledge and get to know our #plasmatechnology. 📌Today: Atmospheric Pressure Plasma! But first of all, what even is plasma? Also known as the fourth state of matter, plasma is an ionized gas with unique properties that nearly all visible matter is made of: the sun, gas clouds, stars, and galaxies. In nature, we can also observe plasma in the form of northern lights.🌌 However, it can also be produced artificially in the lab by strong gas discharges in cylindrical or tubular chambers. And that is, what we, at Plasmatreat, are doing!💪 Chemically, plasma is very reactive and can interact with surfaces, liquids, or microorganisms. If it encounters solid materials such as plastic, glass or metal, important surface properties are changed, e.g. the adhesiveness and wettability. Therefore, Plasma can be used as a substitute in processes such as printing, bonding, lacquering or gasketing in many different industries and there is no need for chemicals, primers, or adhesion promoters. This makes our plasma technology environmentally-friendly and completely solvent-free (VOC-free). 🌱 If those processes happen without a vacuum chamber, it is called atmospheric pressure plasma! Part of that are also our Openair-Plasma® and PlasmaPlus® systems. 🔍Explore the fascinating capabilities of this #surfacetreatment technology and unlock more knowledge about the potential of plasma: https://lnkd.in/eP3t5jNT #surfacecleaning #surfaceactivation #surfacecoating #OpenairPlasma #PlasmaPlus #HydroPlasma #surfacemodification
