Armoloy commissioned REACH consultants, REACHReady.co.uk to carry out an exhaustive assurance survey

West Midlands based coating specialist has helped its customers ensure they stay on the right side of this European legislation through its use of specialist consultants

Armoloy (UK) fully recognises the far reaching consequence of the ongoing REACH legislation (formulated by ECHA, the European Chemicals Agency) which is now widely accepted in the international community. This legislation is designed to minimise the risk from ongoing exposure to harmful processes where no alternative is readily available. We support this objective.

Rather than attempt to sidestep this new legislation, we have chosen to totally embrace and comply with all aspects of the requirements in order that we may continue to offer our unique coating both to new and existing customers alike.

To achieve this objective, we have commissioned REACH consultants, REACHReady.co.uk to carry out an exhaustive assurance survey on all aspects of our company operations. Confirmation that we have satisfied these objectives will enable us to move forward in our REACH Compliance Programme and onto the Registration and Authorisation stages, for submission to ECHA. This survey has now been completed and we are currently liaising with all of our relevant registered suppliers in order to ensure complete compliance and ongoing authorisation.

Armoloy (UK) Ltd is located in the West Midlands in a purpose designed plant that fully recognises the ongoing requirements for both employees and the external environment. We apply our unique Armoloy Nodular Thin Dense Chromium to finished component tolerances adding the benefits of Hardness, Lubricity and enhanced Corrosion Resistance to precision machined items and assemblies.

A significant additional advantage of the Armoloy process over other technologies is that it is essentially a cold process with no stage of the coating application exceeding 70°Celcius , thus ensuring that no distortion takes place. ‘As coated’ requirements of plus or minus 1 or 2 microns are not unusual in our component production planning.

Armoloy NTDC (Nodular Thin Dense Chrome) can also be processed in accordance with AMS2438, AMS2460 (successor to QQ-C-320), DGS-PS-5250, ISO-6158 and various other NATO, DEFSTAN and Nuclear approved specifications. Our coating also has US FDA and European Certificate of Compliance for use on Food and Pharmaceutical products. Extensive toxicological testing has also been carried out to further ensure the safety of the coating in service.
