Coating and treatment of flexible materials.

COATING DÉVELOPPEMENT is a coating and processing company for flexible materials for industrial and graphic use, located in Savoie near Chambéry (France).

Our coating and converting factory manufactures special, innovative substrates for industry and the graphic arts.

We add technical characteristics to substrates by applying one or more top coats. Coating modifies the properties of the materials by giving them additional qualities such as barrier, flame retardant, heat sealable, printable, compostable, colourable, etc.

Coating Developpement transforms various flexible materials such as paper, cardboard, non-wovens, polypropylene, vinyl, Tyvek®, etc. for industrial and graphic uses, using coating and impregnation techniques.

From R&D to industrial production and logistics

Coating Developpement supports its customers at every stage of their projects: formulation in the laboratory, testing, pre-production runs, production start-up and manufacturing.

Our chemical expertise R&D is combined with the technical expertise of our production teams, who have access to unique equipment dedicated to coating chemistry.

These technical skills are complemented by flexible, responsive logistics solutions implemented by our packaging team, including customised shipments to customer specifications.

Major investments

Massive investments have been made and continue to be made in industrial facilities, equipment, people and infrastructure.

The Savoie coating and processing factory for flexible substrates has been organised around a team of existing employees, following the acquisition by Jean-Paul BOHÉLAY and the ID Holding group in April 2010.
The company's specific expertise has been preserved and its production facilities modernised.
The research and development department is now at the heart of the Coating Développement business. It is based on specific technology and unique industrial know-how.

In particular, the company's research and development work has led to the implementation of an innovative industrial process such as the treatment of heat-sealable, recyclable and compostable cardboard and paper. This innovation is part of the search for sustainable solutions, with the development of materials that have a reduced environmental impact compared with the bi-materials currently used (cardboard and plastic). It has applications in a wide range of sectors, including disposable accessories for the fast-food industry, such as cups and cutlery, as well as packaging and food papers. Coating Développement won the "FRANCE RELANCE" award in May 2021 for this innovation.
