A good Tradition of Chemistry and Optics

GXC Coatings in Goslar - in the middle of Germany - combines the best traditions of Chemistry and Optics which have been part of our shareholders legacy and which were present at our site since the 19th century.

At the turn of the millenium, in the Year 2000, these long-lasting experiences led to the foundation of GXC Coatings. Capturing the chances of the rising nanotechnology, the young company developed the first coating materials for glass surfaces. Initial customers of this technology were Automotive OEM customers. Until today, Automotive is an innovation driver with many of our products present in state-of-the-art interior and exterior applications.

Since 2003, GXC pushed developments for polymer surfaces and new areas of application in safety/protection, sensors, displays and optics were added to the existing portfolio. The R&D-department was strengthened and enlarged, customer relations globalised and frequently, new coating materials and millions of coated parts delivered to the market.

In 2009, GXC introduced new, lasting solutions for self-cleaning surfaces employed in completely new markets.

It is our target to develop one completely new coating material every 2 or 3 years - always pulled by customer demand and often in cooperation with first-class Germany and European research institutions.
