Workpieces are protected by surface coatings against typical influences such as mechanical stress caused by wind, stone chipping and abrasion as well as weather influences such as moisture, chemicals or UV radiation. Corrosion-related repainting or even new production of workpieces causes billions in damage every year. In addition, many coating systems today do not yet meet the socially required sustainability targets or contain ecologically questionable, toxic additives and auxiliary materials.
SuSuCoats promotes innovative and intelligent economic change in the field of surface chemistry and connects companies in the region with the ICT sector. Partners from the entire value chain work together in the core team. The focus is on the development of market-ready products in a wide range of application areas.
SuSuCoats establishes digital-innovative material development for surface coatings through the systematic use of material, process and system-related data. The result is innovative, sustainable, durable coatings and protective layers that will lead to savings in the program area through more sustainable surface protection in a variety of applications. This leads to a digitally initiated change in the field of surface chemistry and enables a variety of applications for material protection.
