Berlin, October 15 – Atotech, a leading surface finishing brand within the Materials Solutions Division of MKS Instruments, is excited to announce its participation at Surface Finishing Mexico (SFM) 2025, Mexico’s premier industrial surface finishing and coatings exhibition. Join us at Cintermex in Monterrey, from November 5 – 6, 2025.
Organized by the Asociación Mexicana de Industriales de Acabados Superficiales (AMAS), the event brings together key players from sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and electronics. A robust educational program and hands-on workshops accompany the dynamic commercial exhibition, showcasing the latest technologies in electroplating, paint systems, water treatment, and sustainability. This year, SFM 2025 will be reinforcing its role as a strategic platform for innovation, networking, and industrial growth in Mexico and beyond.
As a leading provider of innovative coating systems and technologies for surface enhancement, our focus is on sustainability, as we are committed to providing products and services that help our customers adapt to ever-stricter environmental regulations. Our sustainable solutions help minimize the environmental impact of coating processes by using less energy, increasing efficiency, and generating less waste. Highlights of our product range include Cr(VI)-free, non-PFAS decorative coating solutions. Our Compact Membrane Anodes (CMA), developed to increase efficiency and productivity in alkaline zinc nickel electroplating processes, along with our CMA Closed-Loop System, represent a significant advancement in wastewater management by virtually eliminating waste generation and promoting sustainability through its closed-loop design.
Visit us at Booth #400 to discover our innovative solutions and learn how MKS’ Atotech unique approaches can meet the industry’s most pressing needs.
Technologies that we will be showcasing:
Covertron® 600 and TriChrome®:
Experience Cr(VI)-free, non-PFAS decorative and functional coating solutions, including the revolutionary Covertron 600 chrome-free plastics metallization process. This process eliminates hexavalent chromium from decorative electroplating and expands the range of plastic materials that can be metallized.
Explore the range of trivalent chromium processes for decorative applications, offering a spectrum of contemporary chrome shades – from a bluish light finish to a variety of medium-dark to darker shades.
CMA and CMA Closed Loop:
Learn about Compact Membrane Anodes (CMA) and CMA Closed-Loop System for alkaline zinc nickel plating, which significantly advance wastewater management by virtually eliminating waste generation and promoting sustainability.
Zinni® AL 450 – Alkaline zinc nickel process with stable nickel incorporation of 12–15%.
Zinni® AL 650 – The fastest alkaline zinc nickel plating process (up to 20 µm/h @ 5 A/dm2 plating speed) for rack applications, providing a high burning resistance and high current efficiency.
Tridur® family – High-performance trivalent chromium passivation processes for the entire color spectrum (blue, black, yellow, iridescent) for zinc and zinc alloys. In combination with Tricotect auxiliary equipment, the best plating quality can be achieved with reduced resource consumption.
EcoTri® ONE – Versatile passivate for zinc and zinc nickel electroplated layers
Sealer 300 W 2.0 – Clear reactive inorganic sealer providing superior appearance and corrosion performance
