Beckers, a global market leader in coil coatings, has developed the first commercial paint formulations for dual ultraviolet and electron-beam curing in the coil coating market. The game-changing technologies, which build on Beckers’ 18 years of pioneering work, can significantly reduce VOC and CO2 emissions, and enhance efficiency in the industry by providing up to twice the surface coverage per kilogram of paint.
The European Coil Coating Association (ECCA) considers ultraviolet- (UV) and electron-beam- (EB) curing technology to be the most significant game changer in terms of decarbonization of the coil coating industry.
