Metal Treatment & Finishing
Specialty additives for every bath in the line — cleaning, pretreatment, plating, anodising, galvanising, corrosion control and precision finishing.
THE BRIEF
Bath chemistry, not commodity supply.
Geocon Products offers specialty surfactants, wetting agents, defoamers, corrosion-control additives, cleaning auxiliaries, chelating agents, adhesion promoters, surface modifiers and functional additives for metal pretreatment, metal cleaning, electroplating, phosphating, anodising, passivation, galvanising and industrial metal finishing.
Our products are designed to improve cleaning efficiency, bath wetting, penetration, foam control, surface uniformity, coating adhesion, corrosion resistance and overall process reliability across ferrous and non-ferrous metal treatment operations.
"Geocon Products offers performance surfactants, process additives and functional treatment chemicals that help metal finishers achieve cleaner surfaces, more uniform deposits, improved corrosion resistance, lower defect rates and greater process efficiency."

Read left to right the way a plating-shop chemist would: what's being processed, which Geocon products get dosed into the bath, and the benefit each delivers.
| Application Area | Recommended Geocon Product(s) | Primary Contribution |

Seven additives. Every one earns its place in the bath.
Each panel is read the way a plating-shop chemist would: by function, and by where it's best positioned across cleaning, plating, anodising, galvanising and corrosion control.
Fluorosurfactants
Very low surface tension for low-dose wetting and improved penetration — reduced pitting and faster bubble release across plating, pickling and anodising baths.
Non-Ionic & Anionic Wetting Agents
Improved detergency, oil removal, rinsing and surface preparation — with low-foam grades available for cleaning, degreasing, phosphating and galvanising lines.
Silicone & Silicone-Free Defoamers
Rapid foam knockdown, reduced overflow and surface defects — silicone-free options for paint-sensitive lines across spray cleaning, plating and metalworking fluids.
Corrosion Inhibitors
Reduced metal attack and flash rust with improved bath life and finished-component protection — from acid pickling through temporary rust preventives.
Chelating & Sequestering Agents
Controls metal ions, scale and contamination — supporting bath stability and consistent finishing across cleaning, hard-water control, plating and conversion coatings.
Adhesion Promoters
Improved adhesion, humidity resistance and long-term durability — reduced peeling and delamination on painted metal, powder coating and sol-gel systems.
Antimicrobial Additives
Controls microbial growth and odour, extending bath life and reducing biofilm in metalworking fluids, water-based cleaners and recirculating process fluids.
