The primary demands in furniture manufacturing are high quality modules with beautiful feel and appearance. Light-weight furniture and developing functional furniture open up design freedom and require new combinations of materials and intelligent manufacturing methods. Along with continuously increasing demands, the use of cost-efficient production processes is a deciding factor. On top of that, environmentally responsible, no-emission furniture modules are demanded that comply with VOC directives.
Plasmatreat is at home in the furniture industry. We are members of the IGEL, the lightweight construction association of the furniture industry. Working with our customers, we are developing innovative and efficient processes for surface treatment.
Plasma pre-treatment for MDF, WPC, PVC, and PP, as well as wood, achieves superior surface activation with the simple physical principle of Openair® plasma.

Plasmatreat constantly faces shifting demands as a result of new ideas, regulations, and standards. Customers are increasingly approaching the company with unique and innovative project requests. Consequently, the capacities of the technology and research center will now be expanded to include a class-6 cleanroom.
Plasmatreat supports digitized manufacturing with its Plasma Control Unit (PCU) and makes numerous controls, regulation, and monitoring functions available to ensure consistently high surface-treatment quality and reproducibility.
VOCs occur when solvents and solvent-containing products are used, and they are harmful to the environment. Nevertheless, manufacturing in many industries still involves pre-treating surfaces with primers, bonding agents or other chemicals that release VOCs. With its Openair-Plasma process, Plasmatreat offers an environmentally friendly alternative.
