Environmental Benefits

Our technology brings significant environmental benefits over legacy methods, delivering surface modifications cleanly and safely without introducing contamination or the use of harsh chemicals.

Our technology reduces your toxic footprint:

The electrolysis is delivered through a jet in a closed system, meaning that there are only minor losses through evaporation and no mess and no heat are generated in the process.

Significantly, as our technology requires only low concentration saltwater solutions such as table salt and provides no contamination in the localised environment with dust or fumes, no specialist PPE is required. This is in stark contrast to alternative methods that commonly require the use of strong acids such as hydrofluoric acid or harmful alkalis that require specialist handling, air filtration and storage procedures.

Many current technologies use grit/sand blasting to add texture, leading to dust and contamination requiring a specialist environment.

Our technology can be applied directly onsite, cleanly and simply.

Process efficiencies

Cost efficiency through process streamlining is vital to success in modern high-value manufacturing, therefore many industries are seeking alternative methods of surface preparation to replace legacy processes. This is where we can help.

Utilising our patented technology means that surface processing can be reduced from a complex multi-stage process to a one-step technique that can be carried out in-situ as part of the production process, significantly reducing a factory’s footprint and reducing associated costs.

Legacy processes typically require pre-process masking to shield the non-machine areas, however our technology can directly write complex geometries onto the surface area, leaving the remainder of surfaces unaffected and undamaged.

Our technology removes the need for masking prior to surface treatment. In comparison, grit blasting requires masking to avoid damage to those areas not required to be textured. This typically adds a minimum of 2x the machining time to set up to the overall processing time and notably, the masking set up time required increases exponentially as the size and complexity of the part increase

Health & Safety Benefits

Cost efficiency through process streamlining, whilst maintaining stringent health and safety considerations is vital to success in modern high-value manufacturing. Therefore many industries are seeking alternative methods to replace existing processes.
This is where we can help.

Minimal PPE required:

Our patented technology is non-invasive and quiet, producing sound levels of <69db, equivalent to that of many household appliances. This means there is minimal environmental noise pollution within the factory and no ear protection is required.

Significantly, as our technology only requires low concentration saltwater solutions such as table salt as well as providing no contamination in the localised environment with dust or fumes, no specialist PPE is required.
