Dura Coat coating technologies being used on CMG construction projects
include Durapon™ 70, a premium PVDF coating that is harder and more
flexible than other PVDF coatings, and Ceranamel™ XT40S-SMP, a smooth,
durable polyester resin formulated to provide superior resistance to
chalking, fading and environmental weathering. The partnership has
already yielded some noteworthy projects, such as construction by
Heritage Goodhew, leaders in metal roofing installation and repair.
“The unique metal roofing engineering designs by CMG combined with our
innovative coatings technology truly combines the best of both worlds,”
said Dr. Miyung Ki Hong, President and Chairman of Dura Coat. “This
powerhouse partnership between Dura Coat and CMG will continue to
produce highly durable metal roofing solutions for customers across the
United States.”
Dura Coat worked closely with CMG to design a special wrinkle-textured
polyester version of XT40S, called Krypt-Stone, which will give a unique
3-dimensional appearance, enhance abrasion resistance and increase
scratch-resistance during installation. These innovative formulations
designed to deliver long-term exterior weathering performance make Dura
Coat coatings a leading choice for commercial and residential
applications.
CMG headquarters was established in Madison, Wisconsin with additional
production and distribution facilities in Denver, Colorado, Minneapolis,
Minnesota, and Indianapolis, Indiana. Utilizing 33 years of
manufacturing experience, CMG consistently provides high quality
products that illustrate its design and engineering expertise to deliver
exceptional value to the customer. CMG is expanding its operations by
opening two new production facilities in Phoenix, Arizona, and Salt Lake
City, Utah, beginning January 2017.
“We are delighted to partner with a company like Dura Coat and Axalta
who continually demonstrate their commitment to developing consistently
innovative products that are also respectful to the environment,” said
Gary Woodward, President of Coated Metal Group. “Working closely with
their chemists has helped ensure exceptional color match on production
batches, boosting our already high confidence in delivering beautiful
and protective roofing and construction materials.”
