NABU is one of only 11 pretreatment system suppliers globally to be members of QUALICOAT UK & Ireland.
NABU aims to connect and strengthen relationships with UK and Irish businesses as Markus Schöll (CEO) at NABU explains:
"We already have strong technical and commercial partnerships in the UK market, and we see great value in sharing expertise and best practices. Joining QUALICOAT UK & Ireland allows us to strengthen existing relationships, establish new partnerships and further support customers in achieving sustainable, high-quality coating processes."
Complete Chemical Solutions for Aluminium, Steel, and Industrial Applications
NABU specialises in high-quality pretreatment solutions for aluminium, steel and galvanised steel. Beyond supplying pretreatment chemistry, the company provides integrated technical support, dosing systems, process optimisation and wastewater treatment solutions, offering customers a complete approach to surface technology from a single source.
Driving Environmental Standards and Sustainable Coating Practices
Chair of QUALICOAT UK & Ireland Chris Mansfield believes this latest addition reinforces QUKI’s commitment to driving up industry standards and supporting sustainability goals.
“NABU’s formal entry into the British and Irish market means faster technical support and direct access to expert advice. The company’s extensive track record in chrome-free pretreatment is a significant benefit, offering QUALICOAT-approved UK and Irish applicators another proven and trusted route to meeting strict environmental standards, without sacrificing quality or durability.
