High-quality additives add efficiency and cost saving
The investment value of items protected with heavy duty coatings far outstrips the costs of the coatings themselves. However, coatings also play a vital role in increasing cost-efficiency, both in the production process and throughout the entire life cycle.
By reducing the number of steps in the production process, expensive manpower is kept to a minimum, not just when applying the first coat, but also during routine maintenance work. BYK additives boost surface properties, resulting in better adhesion, which in turn reduces the need for priming the surface before applying the coating. Rheology additives control the thickness of the layers, meaning the desired thickness can be reached with just one coat instead of two. An additive-enhanced formula results in greater durability against environmental factors and increases the amount of time between maintenance checkups.
