R & D
A R&D center at the service of industrial performance, technological innovation, and sustainable responsibility with 31 patents/trademarks filed since 1992.
Supporting innovation in Mobility, Aerospace, Defense and General Industry applications.
“Useful innovation, sustainable industrialization.
Our ambition is not to innovate for its own sake but to combine industrial performance, technological innovation, and environmental responsibility. We transform your technical challenges into industrializable solutions, developed in our lab and transferred to our plants.
Our priorities: high performance, energy efficiency, replacement of CMR substances, and REACH anticipation.
Together with our customers and partners, we are designing today the surface treatments of tomorrow.”
Denis MORICE
Group R&D Director
From the lab to the production line:
Electropoli’s R&D Center combines surface engineering expertise, analytical chemistry and industrial know-how to develop solutions that actually reach production. Not prototypes that stop at the bench — validated processes, transferred to our European manufacturing sites and proven in service.
- 70 years of surface treatment expertise.
- 31 patents and trademarks filed.
- CIR-approved until end of 2030 (French Research Tax Credit)
- 4 countries – R&D Center connected to all our service centers in France, Poland, Czech Republic and our technology incubator in China.
Our developments are validated in the field. Electropoli supplies components and assemblies qualified to the standards of Renault, Volvo, Scania and Mercedes-Benz, and supports Tier 1 suppliers with demanding corrosion resistance and durability requirements.

We don’t just treat surfaces: we bring solutions to help you optimize your operations
Whether you’re developing a new component, facing a qualification challenge or looking to replace a restricted substance, our R&D Center works with you to find the right solution, and take it all the way to production.
Develop innovative surface treatment solutions
From corrosion resistance to tribology, thermal behaviour and adhesion, our teams design and optimize treatments tailored to your technical specifications, combining laboratory development with industrial validation at our production sites.
Solve performance and compliance challenges
A field failure, a qualification issue, a customer requirement you can’t meet. We analyse the root cause, identify the most relevant technical path and document every step, so you have full traceability when it matters.
Qualify and get to production
Your treatment works in the lab. Now it needs to reach the line. We manage the qualification process, customer-specific dossiers, OEM approval frameworks, process transfer to our plants, so your development doesn’t stall at the finish line.
Support sustainable and compliant development
Substituting hazardous substances, reducing water and energy consumption, anticipating regulatory change, sustainability is not a constraint we work around. It’s integrated into how we develop.
We create now the future of surface treatments
Our project portfolio covers industrial and academic partnerships, with 31 patents already filed since 1992.
Tailor-made services
Collaborative development
At Electropoli, we design tailor-made surface treatment solutions in close collaborations with our customers.
Our ambition is to create sustainable and innovative processes that meet the technical and environmental requirements of each application in the Mobility, Aerospace, Defense, and General Industry sectors.
From idea to industrialization
From analysis of specific needs to industrial validation, Electropoli adapts products and processes – preparation, treatments, finishing – to your parts from the design phase.
Prototyping, pre-series testing, co-engineering, and dedicated tooling ensure a complete, reliable industrialization process.
