Food Safe Coatings Services

Some of the most common food-safe coatings include:

1. Electroless Nickel (EN): Known for its corrosion resistance and durability, electroless nickel is often used on food processing equipment.
2. Thin Dense Chrome (TDC): Armoloy Thin Dense Chrome is a food-safe coating that provides excellent wear resistance, reduces friction, and prevents corrosion.
3. PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene): Commonly known as Teflon, this non-stick coating is used in cookware and food packaging machinery.
4. Ceramic Coatings: Ceramic coatings are highly durable and resist high temperatures, making them ideal for food contact surfaces.

When choosing food-safe coatings, ensure they are certified and meet your specific component requirements to maintain safety and compliance.

Components coated with Armoloy TDC are 100% safe for workers and end users.  Plated components are used extensively in the food and drug industry, and routinely certified for REACH and RoHS compliance. In addition, Armoloy invests heavily in the newest technology to help ensure the safety of our employees and communities. For more information, learn about the misconceptions of chromium coatings.

Certification to many industry and supplier specifications is available, including AMS 2438 and AMS 2460, depending on the location.  In addition, the Armoloy network has fulfillment centers with Quality Management Systems accredited to NADCAP, ISO 9001, and AS9100 requirements.

While Armoloy coatings can be applied to complex geometries, some extreme shapes may require special considerations or alternative coating methods to ensure complete coverage.
