Berlin, Germany, February 12, 2025 – Atotech, a leading surface finishing brand within the Materials Solutions Division of MKS Instruments, is excited to announce its participation in Fastener Fair Global 2025, the premier international event for fastener and fixing technology.
The exhibition will take place March 25‒27, 2025, at Messe Stuttgart, Germany, bringing together manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and suppliers to showcase the latest innovations and trends in the industry.
Innovative corrosion protection and sustainable coating solutions
MKS’ Atotech advanced product line for fasteners and fixing components includes a wide range of electroplating technologies, including zinc, zinc nickel, and zinc iron electrolytes, alongside with passivates and topcoats/sealers. Additionally, the company offers high-performance zinc flake coating systems, featuring our sustainable non-PFAS zinc flake base and topcoats, developed in response to growing environmental demands. These solutions provide superior corrosion resistance, controlled friction properties, and excellent UV and chemical resistance, catering to the automotive, construction, and agricultural industries.
The company exhibits at booth 1-974 in hall 1. MKS’ Atotech product experts will be available to discuss the latest industry trends, challenges and demonstrate leading new solutions, including:
Zinni® 220 – Acid zinc nickel process that combines high plating efficiency with superior thickness and alloy distribution across a wide current density range.
Zinni® AL 450 – Alkaline zinc nickel plating process with stable nickel incorporation of 12 ‒ 15%, combining highest stability to improve the productivity and efficiency.
Zintek® 200 – Basecoat, available in a non-PFAS version, offering strong adhesion and coverage. Its zinc-aluminum layer provides over 1,000 hours of protection in NSST (ISO 9227) with two basecoat layers (~8μm
Zintek® ONE HP – Single layer zinc flake basecoat providing superior corrosion protection of up to 720h at NSST with one layer only.
Zintek® 300 HP – Black zinc flake basecoat that, in combination with MKS’ Atotech topcoats, provides an attractive uniform black appearance and excellent corrosion protection.
Zintek® Top XT – Inorganic-based, clear topcoat that, when applied over the Zintek ONE HP basecoat, provides 1,000 hours NSST. Zintek Top XT can also be applied over electroplated and passivated layers.
Zintek® Top LV – Thin-layered, silicate-based topcoat proves enhanced corrosion protection, required controlled CoF, and heat loosening properties.
Zintek® Top Black SL – Topcoat provides exceptional results in corrosion protection, appearance, adhesion, ductility, and bendability on electroplated and passivated zinc and zinc alloy finishes.
Modern Cleaners: UniClean® A101/B201 – Cleaner system operating at ultra-low temperatures (35°C), it cuts energy use and CO₂ emissions. Free from phosphates, hard chelators, and amines, it delivers exceptional performance on steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, and zinc.
CMA Closed Loop System – Fully self-contained system integrates plating to rinsing in a seamless closed-loop circuit. Featuring Compact Membrane Anode (CMA) technology, custom additives, a vacuum evaporator, and a freezing unit.
During all three show days the company will give visitors an insight into its latest technologies. More information read here: program flyer.
