Maas Coating achieves perfect adhesion with Tantec’s surface treatment technology

For Maas Coating, surface quality is everything. Specializing in surface treatment and coating solutions for both metal and plastic components, the company serves demanding industries such as machinery manufacturing, automotive, and construction. Their mission is simple yet critical: to deliver high-performance coatings that enhance durability, improve adhesion, and ensure consistent quality in every finished product.

But as production volumes grew, so did the challenges. Achieving reliable adhesion on e.g. composite plastics became increasingly difficult — and the stakes were high.

Initially, Maas Coating relied on mechanical pre-treatment. At first, it seemed like a logical choice, but the results were inconsistent. Adhesion failures began to compromise coating performance, leading to quality issues, costly rework, and lost production time.

“At first, we thought mechanical pre-treatment would be enough. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. We faced recurring adhesion failures that caused quality issues, extra costs, and production delays.” — Jan Maas Jr., Maas Coating

It was clear that a more advanced and reliable solution was needed — and that search led Maas Coating to Tantec.

A Partnership Built on Trust

Through Tantec’s Dutch agent, Maas Coating was introduced to cutting-edge plasma and corona surface treatment technology. From the very first meeting, Tantec impressed with a professional, transparent, and customer-focused approach.

“Tantec listened carefully to our needs, explained the technology in detail, and showed us exactly how their solution would solve our adhesion problems. That gave us the confidence we were working with the right partner.”, says Jan Maas Jr.

It wasn’t just about investing in state-of-the-art equipment — it was about finding a partner who understood Maas Coating’s production demands and could provide expert guidance, training, and long-term support.

The Results: Better Quality, Higher Efficiency

Since implementing Tantec’s surface treatment machine, Maas Coating has achieved outstanding adhesion results. Coatings now perform consistently and reliably, and the company has regained full confidence in its production processes.

“Tantec’s technical team provided excellent training and made sure we fully understood how to achieve optimal adhesion. Our production is now more stable, efficient, and reliable.”

The benefits have been significant: fewer adhesion failures, less material waste, and minimal rework. These improvements have also increased production capacity while indirectly contributing to a more sustainable and resource-efficient set-up.

A Supplier They Trust and Recommend

Although Maas Coating hasn’t compared Tantec directly with other suppliers, their experience has been overwhelmingly positive. With reliable technology, excellent technical support, and a genuine sense of partnership, Tantec has become a supplier they fully trust.

For any company struggling with adhesion challenges, Maas Coating’s advice is simple:

Tantec delivers solutions that work — consistently and reliably.
