Oerlikon Balzers Coating Germany GmbH company portrait

Oerlikon Balzers is a leading global supplier of coatings that significantly improve the performance and service life of precision components and tools for metal and plastics processing.

The coatings developed under the brand names BALINIT® and BALIQ® are extremely thin, are characterized by high hardness and significantly reduce friction and wear.

The seven high-performance layers of the BALIMED portfolio meet the high requirements placed on medical instruments and components. Due to their biocompatible, antimicrobial and chemically inert properties, they not only contribute to better treatment results, the low-friction and wear-resistant thin-film coatings also increase cost efficiency

Oerlikon Balzers has a dynamically growing network of over 110 coating centers in 36 countries in Europe, North and South America and Asia.

The use of coated tools enables the processing of more demanding materials, shorter processing times, lower material consumption and higher quality. In the component area, the coating opens up new design options. Engineers can develop smaller components that can withstand higher loads, yet are more reliable, durable, and cost-effective.

Product / service portfolio in medical technology

Around 7.75 billion people live in the world - and the number is increasing. At the same time we are getting older. Health systems around the world are reaching their limits: costs are exploding and too few doctors and nurses have to care for too many people. Innovations are being used to counteract this trend and to treat patients sustainably and efficiently.

Oerlikon Balzers covers solutions along the entire process chain in the highly regulated and complex medical technology market. PVD coatings and additive manufacturing are playing an increasingly important role.

The functionalization of surfaces with PVD coatings has become an indispensable part of modern medical technology, because the coatings offer a unique combination of extreme surface hardness, low coefficient of friction and corrosion-resistant properties. In addition to uncompromising quality, the medical industry also demands compliance with biocompatibility regulations.

Over 20 years of competence and experience

The company's experience and expertise in developing application-specific solutions for the medical industry is based on more than 20 years of collaboration with medical experts and university hospitals. These solutions can be implemented worldwide through consistently standardized procedures.
