STEINHAGEN, Germany, July 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Plasmatreat GmbH, the global leader in atmospheric plasma technology, has unveiled HydroPlasma®, an innovative, eco-friendly solution for ultra-precise cleaning of glass and metal surfaces. Combining the proven effectiveness of Openair-Plasma® with the reactive power of ionized water, HydroPlasma® sets a new benchmark for removing stubborn organic and inorganic contaminants, including fingerprints, oils, salts, and grease, without chemicals.
Revolutionizing Cleanliness in High-Tech Industries and Processes
In sectors like automotive, electronics, aerospace, and medical manufacturing, even microscopic contaminants can compromise adhesion in critical processes such as bonding, coating, printing or sealing. Traditional cleaning methods often rely on solvents or wet-chemical treatments, but HydroPlasma® delivers a chemical-free, sustainable alternative using only compressed air, electricity, and water. This advanced technology not only enhances cleaning efficiency but also supports environmentally responsible production.
How HydroPlasma® Works: Science Meets Sustainability
HydroPlasma®'s patented process injects water into a plasma jet, where it ionizes into a highly reactive cleaning stream. A precision nozzle directs this stream onto surfaces, dissolving residues with a detergent-like effect—no harsh chemicals required.
Unlike conventional methods, HydroPlasma®:
- Removes previously stubborn contaminants (e.g., fingerprints, inorganic residues)
- Preserves delicate substrates with a cooling effect that prevents thermal damage
- Boosts surface energy for improved wettability in downstream processes
Complementing Openair-Plasma® for Unmatched Flexibility
While Openair-Plasma® remains ideal for light organic contaminants (dust, oils), HydroPlasma® extends capabilities to challenging inorganic residues. Together, they offer a VOC-free, scalable cleaning suite for industries demanding zero-compromise cleanliness.
Applications Across Industries
HydroPlasma® integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, including automotive manufacturing, electronics, and precision optics. Its gentle yet powerful cleaning is ideal for:
- Automotive: Ensuring flawless coating adhesion and structural bonding
- Medical Devices: Meeting sterile surface standards
- Aerospace: Preparing critical components for coatings
Sustainability at the Core
By eliminating solvents and reducing waste, HydroPlasma® helps manufacturers cut carbon footprints while maintaining workplace safety and process reliability.
What is Openair-Plasma®?
Plasma is also known as the fourth state of matter, alongside solid, liquid and gas. When additional energy is added to a gas, it becomes ionized and enters the energetic plasma state. Whether plastic, metal, glass or paper, plasma technology is used to change the properties of the surface according to the requirements of the process.

Plasmatreat Introduces HydroPlasma®: A Sustainable Breakthrough in High-Performance Surface Cleaning
Plasmatreat Introduces HydroPlasma®: A Sustainable Breakthrough in High-Performance Surface Cleaning
BANGKOK, Jan. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Chulalongkorn University, Chiang Mai University and Mahidol University held their first joint meeting of university councils and senior administrators and jointly signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on academic collaboration among the three institutions on January 17, 2026, at the NSP Rice Grain Auditorium, Science and Technology Park, Chiang Mai University. The objective was to integrate the strengths of the country's three leading universities, elevate Thailand's higher education system, and enhance international competitiveness.
This collaboration is driven by the MC² concept, which represents the integration of the strengths of Mahidol (M), Chula (C), and Chiang Mai University (CMU). By combining the expertise and distinctive strengths of each institution, the partnership aims to create a multiplied collective force to develop human capital, research, and innovation that respond to the nation's future needs.
The joint meeting of the three university councils commenced with remarks by Professor Dr. Surakiart Sathirathai, Chairman of the Chulalongkorn University Council and Chiang Mai University Council, who outlined the objectives and expressed his congratulations on the collaboration. This was followed by congratulatory remarks from Clinical Professor Emeritus Dr. Piyasakol Sakolsatayadorn, Chairman of the Mahidol University Council.
On this occasion, Professor Dr. Wilert Puriwat, President of Chulalongkorn University; Professor Dr. Pongruk Sribanditmongkol, President of Chiang Mai University; and Professor Dr. Piyamitr Sritara, President of Mahidol University, presented their universities' policies and missions, as well as the joint initiatives to be undertaken.
The three presidents then jointly signed the Memorandum of Understanding on academic collaboration, received recommendations from university council members, and exchanged perspectives. The event concluded with the exchange of commemorative gifts among the presidents of Chulalongkorn University, Chiang Mai University, and Mahidol University, followed by a group photograph.
This collaboration among the three leading universities marks a significant milestone in advancing Thai higher education.
