About Kobato
Kobato B.V. is a family-owned company from the Twente region (Netherlands) specializing in the processing of polyurethane. The company develops and manufactures custom solutions against abrasion and wear on components in production and processing plants. The polyurethane coating is applied with variable layer thicknesses and hardnesses between 55° Shore A and 80° Shore D, even on complex-shaped and irregular components; on-site application at the customer's premises is also possible. In addition to wear protection, the coatings improve sliding properties, reduce noise, provide chemical resistance, easy cleaning and corrosion protection. Customers come from bulk materials handling, recycling technology as well as general plant and processing engineering in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and France. With in-house engineering, project and revision support as well as short delivery times and logistical relief, Kobato accompanies projects from design to the finished coating.
