Thierry offers plasma systems that provide excellent coating results. Surface coating in this instance refers to plasma coating treatments. Using the plasma coating method to apply ultra-thin polymeric layers can be advantageous for many different materials. This process is usually done by using the [PVD](https://www.thierry-corp.com/plasma/plasma-resources/plasma-knowledgebase/physical-vapor-deposition-pvd/?hsLang=en) or CVD process. These processes can be performed by using a plasma system from Diener.
