The R&D center puts COATEMA´s business philosophy into the customers´service.
Flexibility and profitability (see also COATEMA Advantages and COATEMA Competence ) , the transfer of Know-how and the acceleration of innovations form the basis of COATEMA´s business philosophy. In order to satisfy these values, we have extended our company-own R&D center to a surface of more than 1.200 m² now. Here we can offer you prduction plants fit for service with working widths from 250mm to 2.000 mm.
The users of our R&D center.
Among the users of our R&D center are leading chemistry groups and other companies who want to test new, innovative raw materials and materials isolated from the public and present their products as prototypes to the interested market.
On the occasion of our annual COATEMA Symposium, the high-end R&D center is the place where the theory from the lectures is vividly combined with state-of-the -art possibilities in production technology.

Hardware and service advantages for the users of the new COATEMA R&D center.
- Largest variety possible by most different and modular coating systems and drying units.
- Support by coating experts on site.
- Coating with solvent-based products possible
- No time lags because of waiting times for your own production plants to be unblocked.
- No loss in sales because of using your own production plant for research purposes.
- Little energy consumption, smallest series possible.
Broad choice of plants for innovative solutions.
Apart from standard coating systems like different knife coating, roller coating and slot die coating systems for the application of dispersions and solvent-based coating raw materials, as well as of hotmelts and powder raw materials, also new coating technologies are available for the users of COATEMA´s R&D Center. Innovative Products like e.g. sol-gel coatings, fuel cells, solar cells energy systems, but also functional roof membrane systems or medical products can be coated on the plant technology on hand. Please see also Equipment.
Highest versatility and maximum reproducibility of the results.
The majority of the plants in our R&D center can be used in multifunctional ways. This is why the most different coatings and laminatings can be realised for the most different fields of application (industries), for roll-to-roll applications or sheet-to-sheet applications.
It was the reproducibilty and the transferability of the trials to the serial production that was especially focused while designing the plants. Thanks to our sophisticated and modular construction method, this aim was reached to almost 100 per cent.
