Why Kynar 500^® PVDF Resin?

Modern times have seen the rise of metal as a prime exterior material, largely due to its rugged durability, design versatility, and aesthetic possibilities. However, for all its bravado and beauty, metal tends to be superficially weak, and is generally available in but a single color. Thus, in order to be both functional and pleasing to the eye, metal must be coated with a unique finish which beautifies with color and resists any chalking, pitting, chipping, or premature aging.

Noted by architects around the world Kynar 500^® PVDF resin-based coatings are precisely the product necessary to provide such protection and preservation to aluminum, galvanized steel, and aluminized steel. No other coating system withstands the rigors of nature and time like those based on Kynar 500^® resins. This high-performance fluoropolymer resin, with its extraordinary capability to retain color and gloss, keeps painted metal looking vibrant and appealing.
