New Waterborne Coatings For Exterior Frames and Shutters Provide Long-Term Resistance to Atmospheric Agents
The backdrop to the formulation of the new coatings is that many joiners are now demanding nothing less than state-of-the-art products in terms of durability, the cost of the original raw materials notwithstanding. This challenge is one that brings out the consummate creativity of ICA. The main characteristics of the most recent waterborne coating products for exteriors (windows, shutters, doorframes, fences, balconies, exterior screens, gazebos and garages) are high levels of durable protection for wooden frames and wooden outdoor products, together with long-lasting beauty. Using waterborne coatings on exterior doors and windows is now commonplace, due to the numerous advantages they offer: reduced levels of solvent emissions; short application times; excellent elasticity and resistance of the coating film to temperature changes and atmospheric agents; easily coatable and no risk of autocombustion.
