FERRO ORGANIC COATINGS ADVANTAGES
- Ready-to-use, no additions necessary
- No pot life to be considered
- No explosion protection required
- All equipment can easily be cleaned with water
Ferro glass coatings show considerable advantages over pigmented or etched glass:
- All Ferro waterborne glass coatings are free of heavy metals
- By varnishing the prefabricated glass object, the coloring is uncoupled completely from glass production, even smallest lots can be produced economically
- Short lead time for spray-painting significantly reduces the warehousing risk for finished products, allowing for quick-turnaround requests
