OliKrom<\/a> is the specialist in smart coatings for industrial safety<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Our smart coatings are capable of changing color and\/or luminescence on demand. They offer multiple possibilities to increase safety and detect hazards<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We make color talk to track the presence of an anomaly on an equipment for the protection of workers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

OliKrom works with many companies to develop innovative solutions to enhance safety<\/strong>: protection of tools, equipment and workers, detection and control of hazards, reporting of anomalies or incidents.<\/p>\n

We use the richness offered by smart materials. The options for creating interactive devices (sensors, indicators, components, etc.) with their environment are limitless.<\/p>\n

Custom coating deposited on equipment can become reactive<\/strong> to temperature<\/a>, light (photochromes<\/a> and luminescents<\/a>), pressure<\/a>, solvents or gases<\/a> in order to monitor industrial risks: leaks, to detect abnormal heat, to monitor health-materials, etc.<\/p>\n

This allows us to contribute to the resolution of numerous industrial hazards and workers protection needs, as in the case of our partnerships in the aeronautics industry with the Safran Turbomeca<\/a> and Airbus<\/a> groups.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

A very interesting property of smart coatings is their ability to modify their optical response autonomously, without any power supply<\/strong>. This allows us to intervene for the protection of workers and equipment in very restrictive environments<\/strong>, where any electrical source is totally or partially forbidden during certain phases of intervention.<\/p>\n

No electricity needed<\/strong>, the color change in a smart coating (paint & ink) occurs only when the threshold is crossed. It is a thermodynamic process<\/strong> that acts as a passive solution. It's all in the initial programming of the product to calibrate the right trigger threshold and the reversible or irreversible nature of the color change.<\/p>\n

Color change coatings<\/strong> are becoming alternative solutions to electronic sensors<\/strong> for equipment hazards monitoring. For example, the use of thermochromic coatings can replace thermocouples and\/or thermometers<\/a>: this is now a reality.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

For some protection uses, the alert function sought is a visual detection. The process of color change is often preferred for its simplicity of interpretation and its understanding by everyone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For example, an operator who observes the color change of a thermochromic<\/a> ink or paint on the coated surface :<\/p>\n
