Sunoloy Coatings

Sunoloy® Coatings are Technologically Advanced and Innovative Coating Solutions.

Sun Coating Company has been providing innovative coating solutions for release (nonstick), wear, and dry lubrication for 60 years. To keep up with the ever-growing demands of the industry―our proprietary, patentable coatings (Sunoloy®) continue to evolve through continuous engineering, trial, and testing with the most advanced materials in the marketplace today―formulated for unrivaled performance, revered by design engineers and manufacturing professionals alike. 

Sunoloy® Coatings are used in many diverse industries and market segments including packaging automation, molding, robotic welding, food processing, thermoforming, automotive, adhesives, and so much more. We help make surfaces work better, faster, last longer, and more efficiently with coatings for high release, low friction―coatings tough and durable that resist permeation, flaking, or peeling, that retain their mechanical properties at elevated temperature and protect from abrasion. Many are available in a variety of colors.

These coatings are used around the world, and have the versatility to offer the marketplace an unlimited range of coating possibilities for release, wear, galling, dry lube, corrosion, low coefficient of friction, hardness and many of our coatings meet FDA approval.

Through engineering and testing we have developed the Sunoloy® Coatings to meet specific industry performance requirements. Our Sunoloy® coatings can be found today performing and meeting the demands in the following industries: molding, tooling, paper, plastic and material handling, packaging, food and candy processing, cutting knives, labeling, thermoforming, vacuum forming, welding, rotational molds, glue and adhesives, paint, foam, and maintenance.
