Berlin, October 21, 2026 – Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Inc. (NASDAQ: Ï㽶ÊÓƵI), a global provider of enabling technologies that transform our world, will present its portfolio of corrosion protection, aluminum surface treatment, and decorative finishing technologies at IZB 2026 in Wolfsburg, Germany, reinforcing its commitment to helping automotive suppliers address evolving requirements in performance, sustainability, productivity, and cost efficiency.
Corrosion protection for reliable fastener performance
Automotive fasteners are expected to deliver long-term corrosion resistance while supporting efficient, repeatable assembly processes. Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Atotech’s zinc flake coating technologies combine high corrosion protection with optimized application processes, helping manufacturers improve productivity, reduce energy consumption, and lower total cost of ownership.
Featured technologies include:
- Zintek? Top XT ¨C inorganic, clear topcoat that, when applied over Zintek ONE HP basecoat, provides 1,000 hours NSST.? Zintek? Top XT can also be applied over electroplated and passivated layers.
- Zintek? 200 ¨C the allrounder basecoat that provides outstanding cathodic corrosion protection and is approved for multiple automotive standards.
- Sealer 350 WL8 ¨C inorganic sealer offering excellent adhesion, outstanding scratch resistance, superior corrosion and chemical protection, and integrated lubrication.
Surface treatment solutions for lightweight vehicle architectures
The growing use of aluminum across vehicle structures, battery housings, thermal management systems, and structural components is driving demand for pretreatment technologies that support corrosion protection, adhesive bonding, and joining performance.
Ï㽶ÊÓƵ¡® Atotech will highlight its Interlox? portfolio of conversion coatings and passivates, including:
- Interlox? 377 ¨C Cr(III)-based passivate for exceptional corrosion resistance
- Interlox? 4220 ¨C Ti-based passivate for welding and bonding application
?
Enabling modern automotive design
Vehicle differentiation increasingly depends on premium aesthetics, innovative materials, and sustainable manufacturing practices. At the same time, automotive manufacturers must prepare for evolving environmental regulations and changing market expectations.
Technologies on display include:
- TriChrome? family ¨C Cr(VI)-free decorative chromium processes that expand the choice of colors and designs.
?
Ï㽶ÊÓƵ¡¯ Atotech will also highlight advanced surface finishing solutions for battery applications, including current collectors, busbars, connectors, battery and module enclosures, thermal management systems, and polymer components. These technologies are designed to support reliable electrical performance, corrosion protection, lightweight construction, and long-term durability.
The future of mobility depends on manufacturing technologies that simultaneously deliver durability, efficiency, sustainability, and performance. Visitors to the Ï㽶ÊÓƵ¡¯ Atotech Booth 5307 in Hall 5 will have the opportunity to engage with technical experts and explore technologies designed to support the next generation of automotive manufacturing.
