Dura Coat, a leading supplier of industrial coatings formulated to be
environmentally responsible, offers an extensive range of coil coatings
for use in building components and aluminum extrusions, as well as many
other general industrial applications. Leveraging decades of coatings
expertise and utilizing extensive research and development, Dura Coat
products are ideal for manufacturers who prefer environmentally
responsible products for use in industries that rely on metal such as
HVAC equipment, appliances, construction, garage and entry doors, office
furniture, lighting fixtures, and electrical insulation. At METALCON,
Dura Coat will feature its new air dry, water-based Hydropon™ coating
along with the company’s other established brands including Durapon™ 70,
a premium PVDF coating that is harder and more flexible than other PVDF
coatings, and Ceranamel™ XT-40S, a polyester with a ceramic,
porcelain-type finish.
“We are looking forward to our first shared event with Dura Coat since
the acquisition,” said Michael Bennett, Axalta’s Industrial Marketing
Director. “Axalta’s partnership with Dura Coat is powerful because of
our shared vision and focus on technology, including their drive to
continuously create innovative new products. A great example of this is
Hydropon which we’re particularly excited to be introducing.”
Hydropon is a new water-based, air-dry PVDF that is formulated to
revitalize and transform old roofs and siding to look brand new again.
Hydropon provides a smooth surface and restores beauty and resilience to
mold, mildew, delamination and peeling in the face of exposure to the
harshest weather conditions. With its fast and easy spray application,
Hydropon is designed to adhere exceptionally well to previously coated
metal. After a brief two-hour air dry process, in which the coating must
be protected, the finish achieves full physical properties within one
week.
Hydropon continues the Dura Coat tradition of offering tested and proven
high performance construction industry coatings. The product’s solar
reflectance value is more efficient than uncoated roofs in directing
heat away from surfaces, thus keeping building attics and ducts cooler
which ultimately helps to reduce cooling costs. Hydropon’s durability
ensures protection from water, humidity, extreme temperatures, UV,
oxygen and acid rain.
