Modern surface treatment is expected to deliver more than high quality and reliable corrosion protection. Today, customers are also looking for solutions that support process reliability, efficiency, and a reduced environmental footprint. Together with our long-term partner Kamp Coating Groep , Chemetall is helping advance this shift through VIANT®, an innovative coating technology designed to support sustainable corrosion protection and efficient coating processes. For Kamp Coating Groep, this decision is not only about adopting a new technology, but also a conscious investment in the future of industrial coating. As Maarten Waaijenberg, Managing Director of Kamp Coating Groep, shared: “VIANT® accelerates the shift to sustainable coating systems while delivering a more efficient process. Its low energy and raw material consumption combined with high production output perfectly align with our mission to lead the transition toward sustainable coating solutions.” One of the key advantages of VIANT® lies in its ability to provide reliable corrosion protection even in complex component geometries and cavities. In areas where corrosion often develops unseen, VIANT® helps ensure long-term protection — not only on visible surfaces, but also in critical internal areas and on sharp edges. This is particularly important for manufacturers that need consistent and reproducible results across demanding applications. Kamp Coating Groep takes a holistic view of its production process, focusing not only on individual steps, but on the entire process chain. Within the organization, this approach is driven by Ruud Nijenkamp, Sales Director of Kamp Coating Groep, he highlights: “VIANT® is a gamechanger compared to traditional galvanizing. It eliminates most post-processing steps such as polishing and wet tapping, avoids deformation, ensures coating on the inside, and makes the entire process far easier and significantly more environmentally friendly.” VIANT® is used at Efté Coating’s new production facility in Eindhoven, where a state-of-the-art dip coating line has been put into operation. After treatment, components can move directly into further processing within the same line – whether for powder coating or liquid painting. The result is a combination of maximum flexibility, shorter lead times, reduced environmental impact, and high process reliability. This collaboration goes beyond a traditional customer-supplier relationship. Together with Kamp Coating Groep, we focus on what is possible – setting new benchmarks for the future of industrial surface treatment. As manufacturers continue to balance performance, efficiency, and sustainability requirements, innovative approaches such as VIANT® can help unlock new opportunities across the coating process.
