Mueller Corporation Attains Cerakote Certification Amidst PFAs Phase-Out

green light buln on puzzle piece being placed into a puzzle
November 21, 2023

Mueller Corporation, a high-volume Cerakote Certified applicator in East Bridgewater and the Metro Boston area, announced its Cerakote Certification. This achievement comes at a pivotal moment in the industry, as looming bans on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), including the widely recognized brand name Teflon, are driving significant changes in the coatings landscape. PFAS, once favored for their unique properties, are facing increased scrutiny due to concerns over their persistence, toxicity, and bioaccumulation. The proposed ban by the European Commission has ignited debates and sent ripples across sectors that have long relied on these coatings.

With the addition of the Cerakote Certification, the company has further expanded its capabilities to meet the evolving needs of its customers. Cerakote coatings are celebrated for their exceptional durability, resistance to extreme conditions, and stunning range of finishes. By incorporating Cerakote into its portfolio, Mueller Corporation aims to offer even greater value to industries that demand the highest standards of protection and aesthetics. 

Commenting on this achievement, Glenn Mueller, President of Mueller Corporation, stated, "Our team is thrilled to be Cerakote Certified. This accomplishment reflects our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what coatings can achieve. With Cerakote, we have an even broader palette of options to create solutions that are not only visually captivating but also extremely protective." 

Cerakote coatings are ideal for a wide range of applications, including medical devices, industrial components, aerospace and defense, 3D printed parts, and more. Mueller Corporation's certification means clients can now benefit from the expertise of a certified team, ensuring that their projects receive the highest level of care and precision.
