Amidst a global push for sustainability, the paint and coatings industry now provides natural, sustainable options that can enhance physical and mechanical properties of coating formulations. The source material of some of these innovations even include a circular raw material: the olive pit.

The expanded range comprises integrated systems of primers, base and topcoats for environments that require electrostatic protection, for equipment mechanical rooms and for applications where a combination of high performance and ultra-fast return to service is essential.

Easy-to-apply, quick-to-protect stain, sealer, and waterproofing products are part of the new line. 

A Resuflor™ topcoat system has been used to ensure a reliable and robust floor surface for the L-159E aircraft that are being used to conduct combat training.

This article makes the case for a single coating layer system to replace two-coat systems for concrete coatings, claiming superior hardness and abrasion resistance as well as comparable adhesion to wet or dry concrete and equivalent chemical resistance.

Measuring the effectiveness of corrosion coatings is achievable. These coatings protect the substrate from stains and scratches and make them easier to clean, but how is that measured, and against what benchmark?

If the onset of the pandemic is credited with heightening the “do-it-yourself” (DIY) movement, consumers’ growing adjustment to our “new normal” and a strong housing market indicate that 2022 will be the year of “do-it-for-me” (DIFM) movement. 

One of the most successful developments in recent years has been the Bio-Guard coating range that creates more hygienic surfaces with the use of anti-microbial technology. The range also incorporates security technology to verify the presence of the antimicrobial.

Research predicts the global paint additives market to expand in 2022. Certain aspects, including global action on sustainability and increased infrastructure spending, will have significant implications for the entire market in the years ahead.

M-120 is a great option for any formulator looking for a unique corrosion inhibitor with multiple advantages—easy to add vapor-phase protection without heavy metals.
