Presentation Will Discuss Axalta's AquaEC 6100 NSF-51 Approval
GLEN MILLS, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Axalta Coating Systems (NYSE: AXTA), a leading global supplier of liquid
and powder coatings, will co-present NSF-51 Food Grade Coatings for
Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Equipment with
Metal Processing International (MPI) at the International
Air-Conditioning, Heating, Refrigerating Exposition (AHR Expo) in Las
Vegas, Nevada. The presentation will take place in Theatre A of the Las
Vegas Convention Center at 1:45 p.m. PST on Wednesday, February 1. Jeff
Paxon, Axalta Area Sales Manager, will discuss Axalta’s AquaEC™ 6100™,
North America’s first and only e-coat to achieve NSF-51 Standard
compliance.
Electrocoat epoxy coatings are widely used for corrosion protection of
evaporator and condenser coils, and other heat exchangers. Axalta’s new
tin-free epoxy coating technology is now certified by National
Sanitation Foundation per NSF-51 Standard Food Equipment Materials. This
development is meaningful for suppliers of commercial refrigeration,
restaurant and hotel HVAC equipment and indoor evaporators who are
concerned with indoor air quality in homes.
“We are excited to discuss the recent NSF-51 certification of Axalta’s
AquaEC 6100, which complements our existing compliance with NSF-61 for a
variety of Axalta e-coat and powder coatings,” said Michael Stuhldreher,
Axalta Market Development Manager. “Together with our partner, MPI,
we’ll have the chance to directly engage manufacturers and end-users of
food equipment-related HVAC products, for whom this compliance presents
immediate opportunities including value-added corrosion protection and
other product improvements.”
In MPI booth #C6300 at the AHR Expo on January 30-February 2 , Axalta
will promote its high-performance, corrosion-resistant range of products
that are ideal for the HVAC industry, such as AquaEC electrodeposition
coatings, Alesta® powder coatings and Voltatex®
electrical insulation finishes.
