Conversion to UV coatings allow tube manufacturers to run faster production speeds, greatly reduce their shipping costs/handling of coatings and implement a much cleaner, green, sustainable process, while delivering an improved ROI to the bottom line.
This company implemented UV coatings technology to replace a solvent-based system to increase production capabilities and provide a safer work environment for employees.
With advantages such as improved economics, a broad range of colors and effects, compatibility with a variety of substrates and an environmentally friendly approach, 100% UV-curable solids coatings are opening new markets for today’s finishing professionals.
