Sermatech Power Solutions LP is a subsidiary of Praxair Surface Technologies and was founded in 1982 to provide coating services to the Canadian aerospace industry. Our Dorval facility has retained its legal name of Sermatech Power Solutions LP; however, we conduct business as Praxair Surface Technologies. With more than 35 facilities in 13 countries, Praxair Surface Technologies is a leading global supplier of surface-enhancing coating processes as well as an innovator in thermal spray, diffusion and high-performance slurry coatings processes. We produce and apply metallic and ceramic coatings that protect critical metal components from a variety of environmental conditions including wear, corrosion and high temperatures.
Praxair Surface Technologies offers a comprehensive slate of high-performance coatings and technologies to aviation, energy and other industries. By continuously advancing coatings technologies, Praxair Surface Technologies helps customers improve environmental performance, decrease energy consumption, extend component life, improve productivity, minimize downtime, reduce operating costs and produce higher quality products. We have developed new generation metallic-ceramic coatings that are applied on landing gear components and are effectively replacing cadmium plating. In addition, we now have chrome-free coatings, which are environmentally friendly and specialized coatings for magnesium and light metal components. We have expertise in developing and applying engineered protective coatings for the aerospace, oil and gas, chemical processing, general industrial, and industrial gas turbine industries. We also offer a broad range of
protective coatings for gas turbine hot section components. Our unique diffused aluminide coatings protect nickel and cobalt alloys from both high and low temperature hot corrosion/ sulfidation, oxidation and particulate erosion. The facility in Dorval has a full range of thermal spray equipment to apply various coatings including HVOF (high velocity oxy fuel), Plasma Spray, Flame Spray and Wire Arc. These coatings offer wear resistance, corrosion resistance and high temperature protection. Our customers include Pratt & Whitney Canada, Rolls-Royce Canada, Siemens Power Generation, Vector Aerospace, Unison Engine Components, Messier-Dowty and many others. The company holds approvals from all the major OEMs and our facility is c ertified to ISO 9001:2000, AS9100 and Nadcap.
