Henkel Adhesive Expands Production of Solvent- and Chromium-Free Pretreatment in Europe
Henkel Adhesive Technologies announced it has expanded its production capacities in Montornès del Vallès, Spain, adding solvent- and chromium-free innovations for the pretreatment of metals in coating plants to its European portfolio. Starting this year, lubricants, cleaners and surface treatments are being produced CO2-neutrally.
Henkel’s chromium-free pretreatment agents Bonderite M-NT 1455T, M-NT 1456 and M-NT 10456 are used for coil coating for customers in various sectors, such as architecture. These agents act as an interface between the steel and the coating to provide enhanced corrosion protection and adhesion. The three solutions are now also available as solvent-free products with the suffix “SF” (solvent-free).
