MICRON COATINGS Group

A reliable partner of the Italian and European mechanical engineering industry since 1973

MICRON COATINGS Group was formed from the union of Micron and Durox , both with decades of experience in the field of surface coatings.

Durox was established in 1973 in the province of Udine, specializing since the beginning in aluminum anodizing and was among the first Italian companies to develop the hardcoat anodizing process.

Micron was established in 1985 in the province of Cremona, based on the experience of the founding partners in the field of surface treatments. Having grasped the enormous potential of electroless nickel plating applied to the precision machining sector, the company made it a core specialization, developing processes, production lines and treatment solutions.

MICRON COATINGS Group operates in the field of metal treatment and coating and is now an established and respected supplier throughout Europe, marketing its services under its own registered trademarks.

Thanks to the excellent quality offered and the commitment to supporting the customer in the product and project development phases, MICRON COATINGS Group has earned a reputation as a reliable partner among the top manufacturers in the automotive, pneumatics, medical, packaging and precision machining sectors in general. For more than 50 years, our constant goal has been total customer satisfaction, which we achieve thanks to our know-how and the continuous updating of our skills, equipment and production processes.

Two companies, shared objectives
