Alkyd

Proven and economical coating technology offering good application characteristics, adhesion and protection for general industrial and maintenance applications.

Alkyd coatings are based on oil-modified polyester resin technology and are widely used for general-purpose protective and decorative applications. They are valued for their good flow and levelling, ease of application and ability to produce attractive finishes across a range of suitably prepared substrates.

Alkyd systems are commonly used on structural steel, machinery, equipment and other industrial assets operating in relatively mild environments. Their combination of practical application properties, dependable performance and cost effectiveness makes alkyd technology particularly useful for general industrial and maintenance coating programmes where highly aggressive chemical or environmental resistance is not required.
