About CEC

This is us

Cutting Edge Coatings was founded in 2007 by Dr. Kai Starke in Hannover, Germany. As a spin-off of the Laser Zentrum Hannover, the company began with the manufacturing of thin-film deposition systems using ion beam sputtering technology. By now CEC is an established high-tech company and serves research together with industry customers throughout the world.

CEC is based on many decades of experience with IBS coatings. We regularly participate in national and international research projects and conferences. In 2020, CEC was awarded „Innovative through research“ by the German Stifterverband.
