Advanced Coating 5-Year Strategy and Roadmap to Remove Cd and Cr+6

The SERDP and ESTCP Weapons Systems and Platforms Program Area developed a strategy to reduce use of cadmium (Cd) and hexavalent chromium (Cr⁶⁺) by 90% or more at Department of Defense (DoD) maintenance depots over the next five years. The full document and a condensed version are available for download on this page.

The strategy includes objectives, metrics, and actions to demonstrate how this reduction can be achieved. The strategy employs site demonstrations and leverages DoD resources to replicate processes across the DoD depot community. It also includes a recommended future path for success in the advanced coatings area.
