New Product Release - TB F-874 and TB F-888
Plasti Dip International is excited to announce availability of 2 new products. Our valued customers continue to provide us with important feed back of how to make our products work more efficiently as well as how we might help them meet new environmental or performance challenges and capture new opportunities. These new products are direct results of this collaborative effort.
F-874 Muraculon satin finish-
F-874 Muraculon is similar to F-830 Muraculon spray coating for polyurethane foams. It uses the same equipment and approximate settings as F-830. However, it provides two distinct advantages:
50% lower VOC's
New Satin Finish- which eliminates finish "gloss" fluctuation caused by seasonal weather changes while also reducing "grab" or blocking.
F-874 Muraculon is available in many color choices and is available in 5 gallon and 50 gallon drums for volume users. Please let us know if you would like a sample of F-874 to try for yourself.
F-888 Muraculon T.S. "TOUGH SKIN"
F-888 Muraculon T.S. is also very similar to F-830 Muraculon spray coating for polyurethane foams. It uses the same equipment and approximate settings as F-830. However F-888 offers distinct performance advantages as well as improved adhesion properties. Many F-830 customers have asked for a more a durable, puncture resistant product to withstand harsh environments such as military applications, day care and hospital furniture and other applications where sewn vinyl covers have been the only choice.
*30% higher tensile strength
*25% higher tear strength
*20% higher elongation
New Satin Finish
*As compared to F-830 Muraculon
There is significant opportunity in this market when you consider the limitations in size, shape, minimums per color choice and labor involved in sewn covers. F-888 is available in many color choices and is packaged in 5 gallon and 50 gallon drums for volume users. Please let us know if you would like a sample of the new F-888 Muraculon T.S. to try for yourself.
The R&D staff has been hard at work the past 18 months preparing new protective coatings for all types of flexible foam applications. Several are in the final stages of development so stay tuned for more innovative foam protection products from Plasti Dip International.
