Spectrum Advanced family

About Us

Three platforms — paper-mill rolls, thermal-spray coating, and industrial cleaning

Three operating platforms across paper, coatings, and industrial cleaning — engineered, applied, and serviced by one team.

Elevating Technology Platforms

Our purpose is to build technology platforms that elevate customers, employees, and community.

History

From Fluoron to Spectrum Advanced.

How It Started

Fluoron began in 1986 with one product, one customer, and a craftsman’s eye for engineered surfaces — hand-laying fluoropolymer coatings onto industrial roll covers in a converted Elkton workshop.

How It’s Going

Today, Spectrum Advanced operates three integrated platforms — Fluoron, Radiant, and AEGIS — serving Hershey, 3M, International Paper, SpaceX, Northrop Grumman, and over a hundred more across paper, packaging, aerospace, and energy.
