The Institute of Analytical and Physical Chemistry for the Environment and Materials (IPREM) of the University of Pau and the Adour Countries (UPPA) organized an exceptional masterclass on surface treatments in the aeronautical industry within the framework of the RESINSURF project. Sylvain Amand, R&D Manager at AXYAL, delivered the session in December 2025 at the IPREM Amphitheatre.
The masterclass, entitled “Traitements et Ingéniérie de Surface pour l’Industrie Aéronautique & les défis écodurables de demain”, explored current innovations, industrial challenges, and ecological approaches shaping the future of aeronautics. It was part of a series of masterclasses linked to the Interreg Sudoe RESINSURF project, coordinated by CIDETEC Surface Engineering, which aims to replace toxic treatments with sustainable alternatives.
This event was key for professionals and students interested in green materials and sustainable aeronautics, reinforcing collaboration among partners such as IPREM and entities from Spain, France, and Portugal.
