IST UV-Equipment

IST METZ develops, manufactures and distributes UV equipment for the environmentally friendly curing of solvent-free inks, varnishes, silicones and adhesives.
UV-curable coatings were first developed by the chemicals industry in 1966-67. This was the starting point for the rapid development of UV technology. The coatings developed were either totally free of solvents, or low in solvents, and curing (polymerisation) could only take place using UV energy of particular wavelength.
The success story of IST UV equipment began under the leadership of Gerhard Metz (Dipl. Ing FH) following the development of the first IST UV equipment (at that time still at the Hildebrand company).
