Coatings for the aerospace industry

To guarantee total functionality of mechanical parts, Argos offers various surface treatments for the aeronautics industry.

aeronautico-blue-1-1

The aeronautics and aerospace industry relies on parts and materials of the highest quality and with particular characteristics. Working under extreme conditions, the surfaces must be equipped with the best operational techniques and coatings. Substances such as oils and hydrocarbons, acids or bases and high-altitude weathering come into contact with surfaces that can suffer irreversible damage, even jeopardizing safety, if not properly treated and protected.
