Manganese and Zinc phosphating are chemical treatments that create a robust phosphate coating on metal surfaces, improving anchor profile, wear resistance, and chemical resistance. These coatings can be used independently or as a pre-treatment for further coating applications.
PTFE coatings, also known as Teflon®, or Xylan® , are fluoropolymer coatings renowned for their exceptional non-stick properties, high temperature resistance, and chemical inertness.
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) coatings are dry film lubricants known for their excellent load-carrying capacity, low friction, and high-temperature resistance.
PFA - Perfluoroalkoxy is particularly useful in high-temperature environments that demand absolute resistance and impermeability of the material. Non-stick PFA coatings excel in their high chemical resistance, non-stick, and non-toxic properties even at high temperatures.
FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) coating is a type of fluoropolymer coating known for its excellent non-stick properties, chemical resistance, and ability to withstand high temperatures.
E-CTFE (Halar®) coatings used as heavy-duty corrosion protection coating and chemical protection coating for your products and work pieces.
Sol-gel coating is a process that forms a solid, inorganic coating from a colloidal solution, providing enhanced surface properties like corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and optical clarity.
PVDF (polyvinylidene difluoride) coatings are high-performance fluoropolymer coatings known for their exceptional durability, weather resistance, and protection against UV rays, commonly used on metal surfaces.
PEEK (polyether ether ketone) coatings are high-performance thermoplastic coatings known for their exceptional chemical resistance, mechanical strength, and ability to withstand high temperatures, making them ideal for demanding industrial applications.
Fluoropolymer coatings have been used in the automotive industry for many years, especially in the surface treatment of mass-produced parts to help with
Fluoropolymer-based coatings are frequently used in the food industry. All coatings are FDA approved, which means they can be in direct contact with any sort of foodstuff.
Fluoroplastics are used in these industries due to their chemical and thermal resistance. The coatings provide protection against solvents, acids, alkalis, oxidizing and can combine very good none-stick properties and outstanding barier and permeation resistance.
Oil and gas industry specified functional coatings and paintings since 20th century. Thin films often used on functional and precision parts, while heavy duty painting protect equipment on external surfaces.
Plastics and rubber processing industry facing adhesives and sticky compounds. Nonestick coatings facilitate efficient demoulding and avoid adhesion of sticky materials and semi-finished products onto a manufacturing and/ or handling tools and fixtures. Antifriction coatings on OEM parts improve their assembly process, increase resistance to fluids and chemicals, enable reduction of NVH.
High speeds as well as contact with varnishes, adhesives or others require effective antifriction and non-stick coatings. They serve within contact of different raw materials, reduce fiber accumulation, which increases the quality of final products and also reduces production downtime.
Phosphating is a chemical/electro-chemical process in which thin, fine-crystalline and water insoluble phosphates are generated on metal surfaces from phosphoric acid solutions in a dipping or spraying procedure.

1980-1989: The State Research Institute for Materials Protection, led by Ing. Peterka, founded a hub for PTFE surface treatments at Tiba Slovany 22, catering to the Czechoslovakian textile industry by applying Teflon® coatings to textile rollers.
1992: Privatization led by Karel Bičiště transformed Tiba Slovany 22 into PVP Slovany, an engineering firm producing textile machinery, power plant ancillary equipment, and surface treatments, with the latter contributing to 10% of sales.
1994-1995: Following Karel Bičiště’s passing, his children inherited PVP Slovany. Karolína Bičišťová, alongside her future spouse Martin Kortus, restructured the company. Martin Kortus later became director, acquiring 20% of shares and expanding the surface treatment division, partnering with DuPoint and Whitford.
1997: PVP Slovany ventured into the oil & gas sector, initiating a new era in surface treatment development and adopting manganese phosphating technology.
