Research and Development

R&D is the essence for our future existence. We are totally committed to this activity and we participate in international research programs together with customers and universities , specialised  in the medical field.
We are focussed on new materials and new coatings for the medical applications.
In terms of surface technology we have ongoing programs looking at Thermally Sprayed coatings, Nano technologies, PVD/CVD thin film and chemical coatings.

Present research projects:

• Meddelcoat (www.mtm.kuleuven.be/meddelcoat)
• Coatings on UHMW-PE
• Nano HA surfaces
• Drug release systems
• Tough ceramic coatings
• Anodisation
