What Is Contract Manufacturing and Coating?

Applications for Contract Coating

Contract coating is a bespoke service used by major companies for everything from medical adhesive coating to biofeedback devices with a conductive film. We can coat substrates supplied by you or source the substrate for you. Some of the most common applications for contract coating include:

  • Automotive: When an automotive manufacturer needs coated film for something like heated mirrors or battery components, buying their own equipment and training their workers to make the coated film from scratch usually costs more than it is worth.
  • Defense: The defense industry relies on conductive films in biofeedback devices that require scientific precision, which our facilities are uniquely positioned to provide.
  • Electronics: Electronic imaging outlines the circuit traces in the electronics we use every day, but it’s often beneficial for electronics manufacturers to hire a specialized contract coater for the job.
  • Medical: When creating wound care supplies or touchscreen medical devices, it’s crucial to have a team that can perform quality-controlled coating services for your foam, film, and other materials.
  • Optical Film: From windows to advanced electronic circuits, optical films are a necessity in many devices. However, you can reduce costs and increase quality by using a contract manufacturer like Transcontinental Advanced Coatings.
  • Security: Contract coating is a great way to produce security features such as privacy glass or shatterproof windows.

Contract Coating vs. Toll Coating

Contract coating and toll coating services are often mentioned in the same breath. However, there is a difference between the two. Toll coating companies charge a fee (a “toll) for coating a substrate provided to them. On the other hand, contract coating typically involves both the sourcing of the substrate and the coating services. Transcontinental Advanced Coatings performs toll coating and contract coating.
