Description
Envirocron HeatSense powder coating technology for heat-sensitive wood, wood-composites and metals. These coatings, coupled with a strictly regimented application and curing process, overcome the traditional barriers to using powder on these substrates. A tough, durable coating that delivers clear advantages over competing finishing technologies in aesthetics and functionality.

Benefits
- Sealed edges provide durable protection from heat, moisture, physical impacts and UV light
- Cost-effective, compact, low-waste, high-output, automated application technology
- Delivers aesthetics and functionality: solids, textures, antimicrobial*-protected films
- Available in a wide range of custom colors, glosses and textures
- No edge-banding allows for application on curved and straight parts; may reduce labor costs
*Antimicrobial is limited to the treated surface to provide mold and mildew resistance on the paint film and to inhibit the growth of stain and odor-causing bacteria that may affect the surface of the coating. The use of these products does not protect users of any such treated article or others against food-borne or disease-causing bacteria, viruses, germs or other disease-causing organisms
