EN Home About us Innovation Research and development Rigorous R&D is the back-bone of our success. We regularly collaborate with our customers, industry bodies, and educational institutes to carry out research across our global TechCenter network. We also work directly with end-customers and OEMs to co-develop new ideas that drive innovation in the final products. Over the years, we have built an extensive portfolio of patents and trademarks. A large part of it consists of green and future technologies for environmentally sound processes. By measurably saving chemistry and water and minimizing waste, we deliver tangible cost-savings for our customers. Global R&D network R&D A substantial budget allocated to research and development Patents Almost 2,300 active patents (granted and pending) 53% of our R&D projects are devoted to sustainable goals (2020). In recent years, environmental regulations focused on the chemical industry, including REACH, ELV, and WEEE/RoHS, have gained immense importance. The plating industry is one of many industries to feel its direct impact. As a result, there is a growing need and demand for ecological products, creating a new set of challenges and responsibilities for our industries. More about sustainability at Atotech “Our goal is to not only be the leading supplier of sustainable plating systems, but also to raise the standards even higher and educate industries and communities alike about the solutions available in the market today.” Brian Daniels Vice President R&D at Atotech Group More efficiency while remaining sustainable Complementing our environmentally responsible chemical products, Atotech offers auxiliary and production equipment to reinforce sustainable production efforts.
