As many areas are not accessible any more during operation and can therefore not be repaired or exchanged, reliable corrosion protection over a long time period (approx. 30 years) is essential. This applies to aluminium, the still most frequently used material, and also to new composites such as glass- and carbon-fibre reinforced plastics. We have been offering successful corrosion protection for 17 years now (in cooperation with the Airbus Group) and have started pushing the development of water-dilutable paints (containing less chromate) at an early date. Also, paints for structural parts are easy to apply, and are enjoying international success.
