KANSAS CITY, MO – Tnemec Co. Inc., a manufacturer of protective coatings headquartered in Kansas City, MO, has introduced a new product labeling program that combines a distinctive graphic design with multilingual capabilities. The new label will be phased in over the next few months on all container sizes and related packaging.
Each label includes the series number and component part in a large font size, making it easy to identify on the jobsite. Additionally, the brand name, a generic description of the coating, and color number and name are printed with an easy-to-read typeface, on durable paper stock, using fade-resistant inks.
An important addition to the label was the introduction of French and Spanish language capability. Technical information on the labels specifies VOCs, surface and storage temperature, volume solids, thinning and mixing ratios, cleanup, pot life, and curing times in two languages. In addition, space is available to include Canada's Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS).
