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.

  • 🎉 25+ Years of Expertise, Innovation, and Team Spirit – A Journey with Kai! 🎉 Kai has been part of the #Plasmatreatfamily since September 1998 – and his story is one of real hands-on dedication. 🚀 Onboarded in record time, he was already out in the field just days after joining – side by side with his mentor Markus, learning the ropes. 💡 From a team of 8 to a global company Back then, Plasmatreat was still small – just 8 or 9 people. Today, we operate worldwide with nearly 300 employees. Kai was there for it all, growing with every challenge. 🌍 Big steps, big learning One of his proudest moments? A nearly year-long assignment in San Francisco, where he helped bring a niche U.S. plasma system up to international standards – turning it into a globally marketable product. 👏 What makes him most proud? “Solving problems for customers in the early days – and turning small ideas into something big.” 💬 His advice for new colleagues: 👉 Be open and ask the experienced ones – they know the tricks. 👉 Don’t hesitate to talk to leadership – the door is always open. 👉 Stay loyal, honest, and curious. Check out the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/eefZ8i6w Thank you, Kai, for your commitment and deep expertise. Here’s to many more meaningful moments and milestones ahead! 🏆 #30YearsOpenairPlasma #Anniversary #Innovation #Milestones #Plasmatreatment #Innovation #TeamSpirit #SuccessStory

  • Day 2️⃣ of our Technology Days - full of energy from start to finish❗ We are still overwhelmed by the great response and inspiring encounters on the first day. 🤗 Now we are making the most of the second — and unfortunately last — day! In addition to some fascinating workshops, great presentations and interesting insights into the latest developments in plasma technology are to be expected, and plenty of time for networking will be provided. As a special highlight, we brought Technology Days to a close together yesterday evening with an event at which Prof. Dr. Holger Kersten from Kiel University provided exciting insights into the world of #plasma. We looked back on a successful conclusion, plenty of inspiring ideas, and a strong sense of togetherness! #meetplasmatreat #TechnologyDays #Plasmatreat #PlasmaTechnology #Networking #Workshops #Keynote #CAUKiel #Innovation #PlasmaUniverse
