Coating solutions for the end of project squeeze

Coating is the last step before an optic gets assembled, and we know how tight schedules can get at this point. That's why our engineers ask the right questions to understand your application and your optical design, allowing us to quickly offer creative solutions that meet your true needs. In fact, we typically deliver within 1-2 weeks from receipt of parts, often by adapting in-house tooling to keep you both on schedule and on budget.

We're both smaller and bigger than you think

We routinely deposit custom coatings on as few as 1-2 parts for research use and OEM prototyping. Our 11,000 sq ft facility is home to 6 coating chambers, giving us the flexibility to coat both high mix and high volume. From consumer goods to high-performance optical instrumentation, we design our coatings for manufacturability, delivering the same performance from prototype to volume.
