Teer Coatings are pleased to announce that they are a partner in a new large scale collaborative research project launched by The European Commission entitled BIOGO-For-Production that aims to achieve a step change in the application of nanocatalysis to sustainable energy production through an integrated, coherent and holistic approach utilising novel heterogeneous nanoparticulate catalysts in fuel syntheses. A consortium of 15 partners from 7 countries will carry out this ambitious project during a 4-year research program, the results of which will have substantial strategic, economic and environmental impacts on the EU petrochemicals industry and on the increasing use of renewable feedstock for energy.

Teer Coatings Ltd has been awarded accreditation from Safecontractor for the 2nd year in a row, for its commitment to achieving excellence in health and safety.

Safecontractor is a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises very high standards in health and safety management amongst UK contractors.Safecontractor accreditation will enhance the company’s ability to attract new contracts and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by its insurers when the company liability policy is up for renewal. Safecontractor is applicable to most sectors although it is particularly relevant to food manufacture, property, facilities management, retail and leisure sectors, all of which are big users of contracted services.

Under the Safecontractor scheme, businesses undergo a vetting process which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the high standard are included on a database, which is accessible to registered users only via a website.

Client-organisations who sign up to the scheme can access the database, enabling them to vet potential contractors before they even set foot on site. These clients agree that, as users of the scheme, they will engage only those who have received accreditation.

Over 210 major, nation-wide businesses, from several key sectors, have signed up to use the scheme when selecting contractors for services such as building, cleaning, maintenance, refurbishment or electrical and mechanical work.

Standard equipment includes Turbomolecular pump, DC/Pulsed DC sputtering, integrated magnetron handling and RF compatible chamber and shielding

When the Royal Canadian Mint teamed up with Teer Coatings Ltd.—part of the Miba Coating Group—in 2000 to find a higher-quality, environmentally friendly alternative to traditional chromium die coating, neither imagined the result would set a new standard for the global minting industry. That it has speaks volumes about the strength of their joint endeavours.

Inside Minting sat down with Xianyao Li, Chief Technology Officer at the Mint’s R&D Centre of Excellence, and Miba Coatings Sales Manager Romain Waidelich to talk about the innovative physical vapour deposition (PVD) die-coating process developed by the two organizations—and what’s next on their collaborative R&D agenda.
