The event showcased Dörken's latest solutions for coating and pretreatment processes, highlighting the robustness and simplicity of the equipment that reduces energy consumption, maximizes productivity, and improves environmental protection.
Marking two decades of successful collaboration, Dörken
Day China concluded at the Radisson Select Hotel in Shanghai under the theme ‘20 years of partnership’. The event brought together members of the China Surface Engineering Association, coating manufacturers, automotive clients, ecological partners, and Dörken colleagues from across regions.
“In 2005, driven by the dream of German anti-corrosion technology, Dörken started its journey in China, a land full of opportunities. Starting from a small room and one founder, a two-decade partnership journey began. With the rigor of German craftsmanship and sincerity rooted in China, we have steadily embarked on a journey of deep cooperation spanning 20 years and coexisting with Chinese industrial chain partners,” has stated the company.
“The company has always accompanied the growth and transformation process of China's automotive industry. Since entering the Chinese market, it has not only continued to deepen its local business, but also actively supported the development of international and local OEMs in China, always focusing on practicing the service concept of 'local for local'. Looking ahead to the next step of development, the company will further upgrade its service positioning and establish 'local for global' as a new strategy,” has commented Andrej Von Hofman, General Manager of Dörken MKS-Systems Shanghai.
On-site, Dörken’s technical team delivered specialist presentations on PFAS restrictions and the company’s new PFAS-free product series, analysing the core requirements of global and domestic PFAS regulations, industry compliance trends, and the impact of restrictions on automotive and industrial anti-corrosion sectors. They also shared a successful case study and discussed new two-component RT zinc flake applications in railway corrosion protection. Future developments in brake disc coating solutions were introduced by the company’s new sales director.
“Establish the industry benchmark with precision technology, and build market reputation with reliable protection!” This assessment aptly summarised the company’s technical commitment over two decades,” has added Ma Jie, President of the China Surface Engineering Association.
“The global industry has entered a new stage of low-carbon and intelligent transformation, and the surface anti-corrosion industry has also adjusted its development path accordingly, taking 'high performance, sustainability, high quality, and compatibility' as key development dimensions. In the face of this industry change, Dörken, with its breakthrough innovative technology, has opened up the situation and reshaped the value benchmark of high-performance surface coating,” has concluded Huangping, Deputy Chief Engineer of Chongqing Chang’an Automobile.
