Adler offers customized solutions for roll-to-roll coating

In future, Adler will also be offering its wide range of products to processors in the roll-to-roll coating sector. Customized solutions will be developed by a newly assembled team of experts.
Leading manufacturers in the European furniture and kitchen industry have long relied on coatings from Adler. This is because the wide range of products from the Austrian coating manufacturer stands for exceptional surface quality, sustainability standards and processing reliability. In future, this complete package will also be available to processors in the roll-to-roll coating sector. The usual competent Adler service is guaranteed by a newly assembled team of experts: experienced paint technician Ralf Menke in the technical field service, chemist Dr. Sebastian Bräuchle in the laboratory and sales professional Julian Berghofer.
Adler product range as a basis for all requirements
Extremely fast feed speeds, high demands on resistance and surface quality with minimal application quantities, plus a wide variety of substrates, application and curing processes: The roll-to-roll process poses enormous challenges for the coating process - but Adler knows it is equipped for them: "Our diverse product range provides an excellent basis for covering all requirements, whether in terms of the look and feel of the surface, adhesion, elasticity or special curing processes," explains Dr. Bräuchle. To this end, Adler has a state-of-the-art application technology competence center where all processes can be simulated under laboratory conditions. "In addition to UV hardeners and an excimer system, we also acquired an electron beam hardener last year and can therefore reproduce all common hardening processes," says Ralf Menke. Adler also scores highly with its expertise and credibility in the area of sustainability, explains Dr. Bräuchle: "We pursue a consistent sustainability strategy based on the principles of the circular economy. Our low-emission coating systems with a high proportion of renewable raw materials enable sustainable surface finishing of the highest quality."
Tailor-made roll-to-roll coating solutions
Trust is the basis of every successful collaboration - this is particularly true in the industrial sector: "Processors not only place high demands on product performance, efficiency and environmental properties, but above all expect consistent quality and processing reliability," Ralf Menke knows from his many years of experience. Uncompromising quality standards and a strong focus on service meet Adler's needs: "Our aim is to develop tailor-made solutions for every industrial user and to adapt our products to their processes in the best possible way," explains Julian Berghofer. The son of Adler Managing Director Andrea Berghofer represents the fourth generation in the Adler family business, which was founded in 1934. As Key Account Manager, he is the first point of contact for processors in the roll-to-roll coating sector. He sees great future potential for Adler: "We are leaders in the field of furniture coatings, with a great deal of technical expertise in industrial application processes and high sustainability standards. I am delighted that we will also be able to make this complete package available to processors in this segment in future."
