“With this acquisition, we are expanding our offering and foothold in the luxury goods market,” stated Dr Markus Tacke, CEO of Oerlikon Surface Solutions Division. “Coeurdor’s creativity, agility and fast turnaround to meet the needs of customers in the highly demanding luxury market are strong additions to what we offer today in the high-end deco market.”
