New powder coatings for edge protection
PPG announced the lauch of "Envirocron Extreme Protection Edge coatings”, which use a patent-pending, advanced technology that delivers exceptional edge corrosion in one coat.
Specially formulated to cover sharp edges created during metal fabrication, this innovative technology provides coverage that surpasses standard one-coat and two-coat powder systems.The powder coatings mark a significant technical advancement in edge coverage protecting the most vulnerable areas of metal exposed to corrosive conditions. The direct-to-metal coatings are fully reclaimable and deliver significant savings in material, labor, utilities and time. The new coatings require no primer, and applicators do not need to modify their existing coating lines or add equipment.
“Combining uniform edge coverage and exceptional corrosion protection in a primerless, one-coat system is a challenge that coatings manufacturers have been facing for many years,” said Shelley Verdun, PPG global product manager, powder coatings. “PPG Envirocron Extreme Protection Edgepowder coatings are the first one-coat product to successfully unite these characteristics, offering customers a range of benefits and benchmark performance that cannot be replicated by any other coating on the market.”
