Castolin Eutectic acquires Monitor Coatings Group

monitor
Castolin Eutectic announces its acquisition of privately-held Monitor Coatings Group, a technology leader for surface engineering in extreme environments with facilities in the UK, Singapore and China.

Serving customers in the oil and gas, steel, power and aerospace industries, Monitor Coatings has earned its market position on highly performant technology solutions, operating to the highest quality standards, including ISO9001, AS9100 and NADCAP accreditation. In the Oil & Gas industry, directional drilling has opened up affordable access to even the remotest sources of oil. The techniques involved pose new challenges in material wear. By developing ultra-dense, high wear-resistant coatings based on a novel thermal spray and densification process, Monitor Coatings has developed high-tech processes that offer ultimate protection for that drilling equipment. This technology prolongs the life of drilling tools and provides sustainable, durable equipment to the market, thereby significantly reducing costs and minimizing the environmental impact.
