LUX Paint Specifications
PVDF paint coating
LUX uses premium paint coatings
PVDF Coating (polyvinylidene flouride) commonly know by its trade name, KYNAR Coating, is one of the highest grades of steel finishing coatings available on the market. PVDF is well know for its ability to maintain its finish and colour for extensive periods of time without chalking or fading. Designed to withstand extreme weather and atmospheric conditions, PVDF creates a thick film barrier that is highly resistant even to solvents and acids.
PVDF is the predominate choice when highest levels of purity and finish are required and it can be seen on some of the most important architectural projects around the globe.
