AIRBUS TEST PROGRAMME UPDATE
Hardide plc, provider of advanced surface coating technology, is
pleased to announce completion of the first stages of testing of
its coating, Hardide-A, as a potential alternative to hard chrome
plating in certain aerospace applications.
A technical performance review of Hardide-A in a laboratory
environment has encouraged Airbus to investigate further its
technical performance capabilities for potential use on some
specific Airbus aircraft components.
The Company reports that, since January 2014, it has been
working to develop its internal systems to standards of the
aerospace industry's Nadcap accreditation.
Commenting on this announcement, Philip Kirkham, CEO of Hardide
plc said: "I am pleased that Hardide-A has progressed through this
Airbus technical review. This represents another important step
towards possible approval of the coating for use on component parts
for Airbus aircraft and I am encouraged that we are now moving on
to the next stage in the process. I am also pleased to report that
our plans to achieve the aerospace Nadcap accreditation are
progressing well and are on schedule."

Notes to editors:
Hardide develops, manufactures and applies advanced technology
tungsten-carbide coatings to a wide range of engineering
components. Its patented technology is unique in combining in one
material a mix of toughness and resistance to abrasion, erosion and
corrosion; together with the ability to coat accurately interior
surfaces and complex geometries. The material is proven to offer
dramatic improvements in component life, particularly when applied
to components that operate in very aggressive environments. This
results in cost savings through reduced downtime and increased
operational efficiency. Customers include leading companies
operating in oil and gas exploration and production, valve and pump
manufacturing, nuclear, advanced engineering and aerospace
industries.
