AkzoNobel brings market-leading coatings portfolio to HVAC segment

Specifiers, distributors and coaters in the HVAC sector have another tool for their toolbox to improve the quality, durability and performance of HVAC equipment, thanks to AkzoNobel’s POLYDURE portfolio of coil coatings.

POLYDURE coatings contain a leading proprietary resin technology specifically tailored to the needs of the HVAC segment, including commercial, industrial and residential applications. The proven coating system provides a trouble-free application combined with a consistent, smooth film. It contains excellent forming properties and provides batch consistency, along with a broad range of color, gloss and texture options.

The POLYDURE portfolio includes focus-formulated primers as part of the coating system, allowing the topcoat to perform at an optimal level. The primers utilize formulation models for best-in-class performance, including UV stability, corrosion resistance, delamination and intercoat adhesion. In addition, they contain Dual Action Crosslinking (DAX) technology for improved performance over other options.

“With POLYDURE, you get the confidence and consistency of a high performance, focus-driven product. Specifically designed for HVAC applications, our POLYDURE coatings protect against abrasion and corrosion, while their durability means they look as good many years down the road as the day they left the factory,” says Manoel Rodrigues, Regional Business Director, Americas.
