Abakan, Inc. (ABKI) Subsidiary Named by Inc. Magazine among America’s Fastest-Growing Manufacturing Firms

Abakan is an emerging leader in the advanced coatings and metals formulations market. Its technology portfolio includes high-speed, large-area metal cladding technology; long-life nanocomposite anti-corrosion and anti-wear coating materials; and high-strength, lightweight metal composites. Its products are used for applications in the energy, petrochemical, mining, aerospace, infrastructure, and processing industries.

The company reported today that its portfolio company, MesoCoat Inc., was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest-growing companies in the United States. It was ranked 15th in the top 100 fastest-growing manufacturing companies in the country on the magazine’s annual 500/5000 list. MesoCoat develops, manufactures, and markets advanced nanocomposite materials and innovative fabricated metals products through its long life PcomP family of coatings and its high-speed, large-area cladding technology, CermaClad.

MesoCoat’s PcomP nanocomposite coating materials and thermal spray coating services extend the life of oil field and industrial components by anywhere from three to 80 times. This leads directly to significant reduction in losses from downtime and maintenance. The company is presently undergoing a six-fold production scale-up of its PcomP materials. It also is setting up a thermal spray coating facility to serve the regional shale and oil field equipment market.

The company’s CermaClad product addresses the expanding supply/demand gap for corrosion resistant alloy clad pipes. CermaClad is expected to bring significant improvement in quality, production times and, cost efficiencies for deepwater installation of clad pipes in the rapidly growing $4 billion metal cladding industry. Beginning in 2014, the firm expects to manufacture about 200 kilometers of 10-inch clad pipes annually.
