megatrends shaping our future

From rising sea levels to natural resource depletion, everywhere we look there seems to be an environmental challenge. So, from our position as engineers, inventors and innovators, what’s our take? We identify three equally ground-breaking megatrends prompting structural shifts in our industries where our mission-critical technologies can help.

accelerating breakthroughs enabling autonomous driving, smart buildings, industry 4.0

Aalberts surface technologies partners with leading industrial customers worldwide to develop, produce and finish functional and highly durable surface designs of metals through sophisticated heat and surface treatments. This not only improves their product quality and reliability, it also has a positive impact on the entire lifetime of the manufactured parts.

We also develop and produce high-tech, lightweight aluminium and magnesium
components that are both strong and light.

They are of great importance for sustainable transportation in the automotive, e-bike and aerospace industries. For electrical vehicles surface technologies play a role in noise reduction, lightweight constructions to extend the range, safety measures and extension of service life due to lifetime extension of components, such as increased corrosion protection.
