Winkhaus is introducing a self-regeneration surface coating as a standard option. The Nano Protect coating protects steel fittings from moisture, salt air and mechanical stress.
According to OKNA.ua, self-repairing coatings are becoming increasingly popular among hardware manufacturers. It could become a new standard in corrosion protection.
The Winkhaus Nano Protect coating is capable of self-regeneration in the event of light scratches during daily use. The silicon dioxide contained in the coating can “migrate” to the affected areas. Winkhaus performs electroplating at its own plants in Germany. The company has invested in state-of-the-art technology at its facilities in Telgte and Mainingen.
WINKHAUS is one of a few German fitting brands that has not moved production to China. They are also one of the few who have completely withdrawn from the russian market.
According to Winkhaus, Nano Protect meets the requirements of the highest corrosion protection class 5 according to DIN EN 1670. During a salt spray test, the coating lasted 480 hours.
