Coatings Built for Space. Powered by 35 Years of Heritage.
When your application demands performance in the harshest environment, the coating has to be right. That's why Bron Aerotech has partnered with MAP SPACE COATINGS — a specialist with over 35 years of heritage in thermal finishing for satellites and launchers.
Born from a collaboration between the CNES Materials Research Laboratory and Maestria in 1986, MAP SPACE COATINGS was built for designing, manufacturing, and applying highly specialized coatings that survive — and perform — in space.
CNES-Recognized. Space-Proven. The Full Range of Space-Grade Coatings.
Today, MAP is recognized by CNES as one of 20 SMEs within its "winning partnership" program, a designation reserved for companies that consistently deliver on the technical, strategic, and financial demands of the space sector.
Through our partnership with MAP, Bron Aerotech now offers a full range of space-grade coatings — from thermal control and atomic oxygen protection to conformal coatings, adhesives, and lubricants — for satellites, launchers, and beyond.
