Who we are
Protec Surface Technologies designs and manufactures PVD and PECVD coating systems for both decorative and technical applications.
Thanks to extensive experience, Protec provides a complete solution from pre-treatment, prior to coating, through to the industrial process. It also supports customers with training, on-site support, customised R&D projects, technology upgrades, quality control and characterisation.
After 25 years of continuous growth and experience gained in surface finishing, Protec continuously works to improve research and development of high quality production techniques.
In 1996, Protec Surface Technologies was founded, an Italian company supplying PVD and PECVD coating systems and surface treatments; a small size company having a small customer base that sought to meet all technical and processing requirements.
Two companies co-existed under one name - Protec Surface Technologies. A few years later, in 1998, thanks to a constant increase in demand, the two became Protec Surface Technologies, manufacturing PVD and PECVD coating systems, and Protim, a coating centre.
Since 1998, Protec Surface Technologies has been dedicated to the design and manufacture of machinery for high-vacuum deposition of thin film coatings by metal evaporation (Physical Vapour Deposition or PVD) and by plasma enhanced physical vapour deposition (PECVD) based on gaseous or vapour-phase chemical precursors.
Protec specialises in the design, assembly and sale of PVD and PECVD equipment for the deposition of nanotechnology thin films for both decorative and functional applications, also offering customised processes and solutions.
In 2019, both companies merged into P&P Holding, a global centre of excellence in PVD and PECVD coatings. The majority shareholder is a Club Deal made up of leading entrepreneurs who want to further grow the companies: Protec as a producer of PVD systems and Protim as a coating centre for third parties, focusing on the innovative spirit of both, guarantee very high quality standards and represent the reality of Made in Italy at world level.
High-vacuum thin-film coating machines with innovative technologies.
We take care of our customers needs and recognize the importance of all products. This is the reason why Protec is able to provide added value to each surface.
By developing systems with innovative technologies and advanced coatings, in respect of the environment and with exceptional performance, we are confident that the coated products will guarantee customers growth in their sector and conquest new markets.
