Global Reach Chemetall is a long-established global surface treatment leader with a presence across automotive, aerospace, energy, coil, and metal forming industries, supported by 40 facilities, 16 production sites, and a network of technology centres. This breadth creates cross-industry upsell and cross-sell opportunities for advanced fluids, corrosion protection, pretreatment systems, and lubricants.

Sustainability Edge Recent launches of chromium-free and fluoride-free Gardolene D technologies for copper foils and the expansion of chromium- and fluoride-free passivation solutions position Chemetall as a sustainability-focused partner. This is aligned with customer sustainability goals, offering a path to differentiate procurement commitments.

Strategic Partnerships The announced collaboration with Azelis Group to strengthen North American position and the Londian Wason strategic partnership for Gardolene D deployment indicate a growth-through-distribution and collaboration model. This opens channels for accelerated market access and co-sell opportunities in new regions.

Expansion & Labs New surface treatment application laboratories in Vietnam and expanded regional facilities signal investment in local technical support and tailoring of processes. This enables localized demonstrations, faster pilots, and higher conversion rates with regional manufacturers in Asia.

Technology Leadership A tech stack including SAP, Power Platform, Tableau, and MATLAB, along with 2,500+ specialists, underpins data-driven service delivery and on-site support. This enables targeted solutions selling, performance analytics, and scalable after-sales engagements with large customers.
