Coatings for a Sustainable Future: embracing Innovative Solutions
Decarbonizing the built environment:
- Coil coating, significant energy savings thanks to UV/EB technology. According to the coil coating players, UV/EB curing technology has the potential to reduce energy consumption by at least 60% compared to conventional technologies*.
- Window and door trim. Long-lasting metal protection and reduced carbon footprint thanks to a new generation of Mass Balance-certified powder resins at low curing temperatures.
* ECCA - Zero Carbon Coil Coating Line – The Way Forward
Enabling more circular housing:
- Interior and exterior paintings. More ecological and efficient paints thanks to our bio-based specialty feeders and additives (with up to 97% bio-based content) and "Mass Balance" (up to 140% reduction in the carbon footprint of the product).
- Wooden furniture and MDF. Protection of heat-sensitive substrates thanks to our powder resins at low curing temperature (less than 135°C) allowing energy savings and recycling of unused powder.
Reducing energy consumption of buildings:
- For cool surfaces encompassing primer, basecoat, and topcoat: A unique range of solutions helping to reduce the use of air conditioning by 30%.
Supporting community health and well-being:
- Safer food packaging. More efficient and safe inks and coatings for packaging, thanks to a combination of self-reactive resins and low migration UV/LED photocurable solutions.
- Metal structures. Improve the health and safety of paint applicators with water-based, isocyanate-free systems that deliver performance as high as a standard 2-pack polyurethane system.
Enhancing new mobility efficiency:
- Electric vehicle batteries. Protection of the cells by means of a UV-curing dielectric coating to optimize the manufacturing process, but also to ensure the isolation of the cell without delamination.
