Research & development
Our R&D department has an extensive patent portfolio ranging from new technology inventions to specific applications, continually protecting our position in the market. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we are constantly working on developing more sustainable products and processes.
Our R&D department actively seeks out cooperative efforts to further enhance its knowledge of products, technology and performance in the coolant and heat transfer industry. This is made possible by working with leading university research institutes, international industry groups as well as key customers and component suppliers. Conversely, customers are eager to work with us to increase their understanding and knowledge of coolants and coolant applications and jointly develop relevant product solutions.
Our state-of-the-art laboratories and research facilities are equipped with all standard performance evaluation tools. Our R&D also develops and applies proprietary tools and techniques to support various customer and development projects and the performance of engine coolants.
