BALINIT® Mayura: The next generation carbon based coatings. This revolutionary product named after Indian is one of the latest addition in the Oerlikon Balzers product basket which catches the eye with its brilliant colours and reveals its true value in the demanding machining and stamping of non-ferrous metals and polymers

BALINIT® Mayura is invented by an Indian in the R&D department in Switzerland. The coating is multi-coloured as that of a peacock, which is why we have named it Mayura, which means peacock”, said Pravin Shirse, Managing Director of Oerlikon Balzers, India and South-East Asia. This coating is for non-ferrous materials and is based on carbon. When compared to the other coatings, this one noticeably has more durability and smooth finish. In addition to this, it only produces an exceptionally thin layer, which guarantees that the cutting edges will continue to be sharp.
