Specialist print industry coatings protect high-performance print lines from adhesive build-up, ink residue, and costly downtime. From plasma-coated rollers to fluoropolymer non-stick surfaces, Marcote’s solutions keep your equipment cleaner for longer. Discover how the right coatings can boost productivity, extend component life, and reduce maintenance for industrial printers.

Halar coatings offer superior chemical resistance and long-term durability in harsh environments. In this blog, we explore how industries like chemical processing, aerospace, and pharmaceuticals use Halar to protect components, reduce contamination, and minimise maintenance—ensuring safety, compliance, and performance where standard coatings simply don’t go far enough.

Sticky surfaces lead to wasted product, excess cleaning, and lost profits in food production. This blog explores how non-stick coatings help manufacturers improve yield, reduce the need for oils and release agents, and boost hygiene standards—creating smoother, more efficient production lines across bakery, dairy, and meat processing environments.

Xylan coatings offer superior non-stick, corrosion resistance, and durability for industrial applications. In this blog, we explore how Xylan enhances performance, reduces maintenance, and extends equipment lifespan across various industries like food processing, automotive, and manufacturing. Discover why businesses like yours are switching to Xylan for long-lasting protection and efficiency.

Unseen issues in packaging machinery, such as friction and buildup, can drive up costs and increase downtime. Discover how non-stick coatings reduce maintenance, improve efficiency, and extend equipment lifespan—helping manufacturers cut expenses and keep production running smoothly. Learn how Marcote’s expert coatings can make all the difference in your operations.

Abrasion resistant coatings primarily act as a physical barrier for protecting machinery components and increasing their longevity. However Marcote’s coating systems can be given additional properties such as low-friction, non-stick, or greater traction – further enhancing your bespoke desired performance. But what are the materials behind these useful properties? Read on to find out. Tungsten Carbide for Abrasion Resistance Tungsten carbide is an exceptional metal for abrasion resistance, commonly applied using plasma coating. Its application methods include thermal spray or High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) processes. This material is noted for its high Rockwell hardness of 70HRc. This significant hardness allows Tungsten

When it comes to non-stick coatings and fluoropolymers, the terms “Teflon” and “PTFE” often get used interchangeably. However, there’s more to this story than meets the eye. Let’s dive into the world of these remarkable materials to understand the difference between Teflon and PTFE.   What is Teflon? Teflon is a name that – to some – has become almost synonymous with non-stick coatings. But in reality, it’s just a brand name, and the heart of this story lies in its underlying material—Polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE for short. This is the actual substance that is used to give the reliable, durable,

From helping your fried eggs avoid an unplanned scrambling, to maintaining the structural integrity of offshore oil rigs, non-stick coatings are a vital part of day to day life. Having been relied upon for over half a century, these coatings are versatile, and their benefits countless. So, what materials can help us to avoid sticky situations, what’s the science behind their repellent nature, and how does something designed not to stick, coat a surface? Read on to find out.
