Environmental concern one, too many eye brows were raised about its effects on humans who came in contact with the chemicals during application. What the industry has come up with is several times better than what have been in use all these years and the new alternative is remarkably better in many aspects. Without getting too deep into that, we will show you instances of confident adoption of this new solution.

Hygiene coats

Let’s begin with application of Waterborne Polyurethane in hotels, restaurants and healthcare institutions. Cleaning is easy and rapid and takes less time to be done.  One thing that is common in all of these places is the need to keep surfaces perfectly clean and hygienic.
