Coating and adhesive manufacturers are under pressure: They compete for market share, optimize their products in rapid succession, and must focus on efficiency while ensuring sustainability and regulatory compliance. At the same time, products need to become increasingly circular – without compromising the properties of a coating or adhesive. A critical factor in all of this: The right binders and crosslinkers. Their development takes place at material manufacturers like Covestro. The German company is now addressing these requirements by announcing that in the course of 2025, it will open a specifically developed, automated laboratory for optimizing coating and adhesive formulations to provide even better support to its customers.
"With our automated laboratory, we can work together with our customers on the future of coatings and adhesives. Because it operates almost completely autonomously and learns from our existing knowledge and data lake as well as newly generated data, it makes the process of optimizing and developing formulations many times more efficient and precise. This allows us to optimize existing formulations faster or even develop completely new formulations for and together with our customers. We can say: We are reaching a new level of modern research," says Thomas Büsgen, head of the laboratory.
