This single-stage treatment process offers a faster, easier, greener and more affordable alternative to labour-intensive phosphating.
Customers are reaping the benefits of systems with; No water No heat No sludge No VOCs 1000+ hours of salt spray protection PRONORTECTM a brand-new pretreatment product harnessing the power of nanotechnology. Our innovative technology uses organic phosphorous nano-compounds to achieve tier 1 levels of protection, typically upwards of 3000 hours of salt spray protection. This new product is a different approach to Plaforization, whilst still upholding the Metavate ethos of quality without costing the earth. Customers of Metavate have found massive rewards in switching from outdated costly phosphating systems, one customer said; “We were sceptical at the start, it sounded too good to be true, but after we had the test results back it did just what Metavate said it would.
Since then we’ve seen lots of benefits - resolved storage issues, reduced utility costs, reduced water usage, carbon footprint and our production time. We’ve been really impressed.” Metavate processes align with plans to minimise water wastage and promote efficient water usage. These revolutionary solutions also align with the UK Government’s Clean Growth Strategy - a movement that promotes investment into research and innovation in energy, resource and process efficiency as well as supporting innovative energy technologies and processes. From furniture and appliances to automotive components and agricultural machinery Metavate enables clients to look beyond traditional manufacturing standards and implement more sustainable, cost-effective and efficient processes for the future.
