The company has also one of the most advanced technology in waterborne coatings leading to involve in JSF project.[1] Furthermore the company supplies low VOC waterborne coatings to NASA.[2]


Also the company is representative of other European and America based companies. Those companies are PMC Specialties Group Inc. USA, Molecular Products Ltd / UK, Chemoxy International Ltd, Brotherton Specialty Products Ltd / England, Church and Dwight / USA, Abbey Color / USA, R & G Chemicals Ltd / UK, ARMEX Europe / UK, Aqua Surface Technology Ltd / UK.[3]




The Most Advanced Water Borne Paint Technology World Wide Known

ACHIEVEMENTS:

High performance in the manufacture of water-based coatings is derived from acrylic modified polyurethane, ultra fast oxygen activated polyurethane and hybrids of these systems. They exceed the performance features of solvent-based coatings.

KIMETSAN is the first company in the world to manufacture Water-borne Rocket Coatings, Aircraft and Radome Coatings, and to coat Aluminium, PVC and Galvanize without a Primer Coating.

KIMETSAN also has the only waterborne system with approvals for application on aircraft and missiles.

Aircraft Wing Leading Edge Coatings, Prime Top Coatings and Military Camouflage Coatings - ultra matt UV/IRR-IRA/Radar Absorbing coatings (RAC) have military approvals.

KIMETSAN New Technology Infrared Red/IR, RAC/RAM, NIR CARC, Visable and thermal Camouflage and Electro Magnetic Waves Absorbers Waterborne Coatings are the latest solution for military applications.

Research and Development

Kimetsan Group transfers 80% of annual net profit to Research and Development projects. This statistical data shows the importance of R & D projects for the company.

Group has one of Turkey's most advanced laboratories. By means of these facilities, Kimetsan achieves to be a pioneering company in R&D works. The group's success is due to R & D department engineers works in the production department as well as. Therefore commercial, economical and more efficient processes and products can be produced. Kimetsan Group is adding about 20 commercial products to its R & D achievements and portfolio each year.

The first R & D activities and products achieved by Kimetsan Group in the world and in Turkey can be seen below:
