PROTEK® coating – added value for rollers and cylinders
The use of rollers made of steel, aluminium, or fiber composites in high-performance machinery places extreme demands on surface performance. INOMETA addresses these challenges by developing and manufacturing customized PROTEK® coatings for a wide range of industrial applications. Depending on specific requirements, INOMETA utilizes various materials such as ceramics, metal, hard metal, or high-performance plastics in controlled processes. This ensures maximum flexibility in creating tailored coating solutions for individual needs. INOMETA’s exemplary development expertise, particularly in the coating of advanced composites (CFRP/GRP), guarantees a sustained competitive advantage and sets new industry standards.
The PROTEK® solution – functional coatings for all requirements
PROTEK® coatings ensure lasting quality improvements that have a positive effect on production in practice. Specifically designed for rotational components like rollers and cylinders used in film, paper, packaging, and textile production, they are also used in applications like self-adhesive product manufacturing and printing technology.

PROTEK® coating – technology & processes
INOMETA uses thermal spraying for its superior coating process. With this multifunctional technique, a wide range of materials – including metals, hard metals, ceramics and even plastic combinations – can be applied and adapted to the respective requirements. In addition, INOMETA has developed a unique cast winding process for applying composite coatings without tension.
INOMETA has also developed a casting and winding process for the stress-free application of composite coatings. The rapid development in the field of thermoplastics and thermosets opens up new material selection possibilities – diffusion-tight coatings with high chemical resistance and high toughness are just one example of the many possibilities. Furthermore, composite coatings with excellent abrasion resistance can be created by combining ceramics or other wear-resistant fillers.
