Industrial Surface Engineering
Engineered coating technologies for equipment, components and infrastructure operating across demanding industrial environments.
Industrial Applications
Built for application-led development.
From process equipment to exposed infrastructure, METASORB develops surface behaviour around the material, environment and operating requirement.
Manufacturing & process equipment
Chemical handling & processing
Infrastructure & environmental exposure
02
Chemical handling
Surfaces exposed to solvents, oils and aggressive chemical environments.
03
Manufacturing
Components, tooling and machinery exposed to contamination and wear.
04
Infrastructure
Outdoor assets and surfaces exposed to weathering and environmental degradation.
05
Marine & offshore

Why Surface Engineering Matters
Match the surface problem to the performance requirement.
Industrial surface conditions vary, but the engineering logic remains the same: identify the failure mechanism, select the required surface behaviour, then validate performance against the operating environment.
