🔬 Precision at the Heart of Kanigen Group 🔬 “Measuring is knowing, provided you know what you are measuring.” This philosophy drives Kanigen Group to continuously invest in high-precision measurement tools. The video below shows a cross-section of an electroless nickel layer observed under a microscope, performed internally by our laboratory. This type of analysis provides several essential insights: - Is the thickness uniform? The layer displays a consistent thickness that can be measured precisely, ensuring homogeneous protection of the treated surface. - Is the adhesion optimal? The interface between the substrate and the nickel layer is clear, indicating excellent adhesion, crucial for the coating's durability. - How does the structure behave? The dense, pore-free structure of the layer guarantees increased resistance to corrosion and wear. Our strengths: - A high-performance internal laboratory equipped to analyze the detailed properties of electroless nickel layers. - Strategic partnerships: Collaborations with renowned universities and institutes in Belgium and France, as well as with specialized surface treatment centers, for in-depth technical analyses. - Recognized expertise: 65 years of experience in electroless nickel plating, making us a European leader in this field. This combination of expertise, advanced equipment, and academic collaborations provides our clients with tailor-made solutions that blend innovation and technological excellence. #Kanigen #KanigenGroup #electrolessnickel #surfacetreatment #coatings #65Years #Industry #Innovation #Kanigen #IndustrialProduction #IndustrialTechnology #RenewableEnergy #Hydrogen #ElectricVehicles #Semiconductors

🚧 It’s official: work has begun at #KanigenWorksBenelux! 🚧 To expand its production unit in Genk, Kanigen Group has partnered with Altez Group, known for its expertise in industrial construction and strict adherence to the highest standards. With a 1,350 m² surface area, this extension will increase our production capacity by 40%. 🌍💧 Sustainability is, of course, central to this project. By integrating eco-friendly installations, we aim to reduce our environmental impact while maintaining our quality and innovation standards. 👷♂️ Jonas Winters, our Head of Environment, Technology, and Innovation projects, is hard at work, equipped here with his shovel coated in NiPtef (nickel-phosphorus and PTFE). Thanks to this coating, the shovel enjoys increased durability and optimal resistance to corrosion and adhesion— a practical advantage that reflects our commitment to quality and longevity in our processes. 🛠️ We’re confident that with this NiPtef-coated shovel, the project will progress smoothly and sustainably! 😂💪🏗️   #AltezGroup #AltezConstructionGroup #Transformation #NewProductionLine #Industry #Innovation #Kanigen #KanigenGroup #electrolessnickel #surfacetreatment #coatings #NiPtef #65Years #Innovation #IndustrialProduction #Automation #IndustrialTechnology #RenewableEnergy #Hydrogen #ElectricVehicles #Semiconductors

65 years of evolution in our production lines 👨🏻🏭 In the beginning, our production lines were entirely manual. Every step of the electroless nickel plating process was overseen by operators, who adjusted parameters by hand and ensured rigorous quality control with each batch. This work required strong technical expertise and constant vigilance. 🚀 Over time, our lines evolved: first semi-automated, and now fully automated. Today, in 2024, we are reaching a new milestone. Our production lines are now equipped with real-time nickel concentration measurement systems. This advancement allows us to further stabilize our processes and ensure consistent quality at every stage of production. 📊 Optimized supervision: With the installation of programmable logic controllers (PLCs), all our facilities benefit from visual supervision of both direct and indirect chemical processes. Compared to the manual lines of the past, this marks a major transformation. This evolution is not just about technological innovation, but about meeting the growing demands of our clients, while optimizing the precision, efficiency, and consistency of our treatments. It's our response to an ever-demanding market. #Kanigen #KanigenGroup #electrolessnickel #surfacetreatment #coatings #65Years #Innovation #IndustrialProduction #Automation #IndustrialTechnology #RenewableEnergy #Hydrogen #ElectricVehicles #Semiconductors
