Outstanding Stain Resistance for Wood Furniture & Kitchen Cabinetry

Solventborne resins are widely used in the wood furniture and kitchen cabinet markets, however, waterborne technologies have made significant advancements. Even with these advancements, waterborne systems can struggle in pigmented or low gloss systems where stain resistance is needed. Our allnex chemists have addressed these issues and developed a 1K self-crosslinking waterborne acrylic emulsion for furniture and kitchen cabinetry – SETAQUA® 6753. This exciting new product allows formulators to achieve KCMA and  IKEA R2 performance in a one component system without compromise. 

  • EXCELLENT STAIN RESISTANCE INCLUDING COFFEE, WINE, AND MUSTARD
  • RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF BLOCK & PRINT RESISTANCE
  • EASY MATTING FOR LOW GLOSS

Low temperature cure powder coatings for kitchen cabinets

High gloss and chemical resistance are a perfect combination for kitchen cabinets. Our specifically designed range of CRYLCOAT® hybrid 50:50 resins cure as low 130°C, making them ideal for application onto MDF and HDF.  CRYLCOAT® 1501-6 has excellent flow, high gloss and chemical resistance. These properties, coupled with one pass application, means the resulting coatings don't only look good, but your customer saves time and energy through efficient processing.

The CRYLCOAT® 1545-6 was created by allnex chemists to bring sustainability to the formulator on two fronts. First, this tin-free 50/50 hybrid contains no tin compounds, making it a safe choice for any application, and secondly, its low bake temperature reduces the energy requirement for curing and allows powder coatings to be formulated for wood and mdf.

Safer products with flame-retardant properties

Our RAYLOK® 1722 resin contains halogen-free flame retardancy functionalities bound to the polymer backbone and can be used to formulate clear and pigmented coatings with flame retardancy properties. Its eco-friendly profile combined with its superior clarity on cured films, makes it an ideal solution compared to classical toxic flame-retardant additives. Its use in fire-retardant coatings will decrease ignitability, flame spread, smoke density, and heat release. Download our flyer for more information!

A high performance dual cure water-based acrylic

Your customers' furniture coating line will be closed by their local authorities due to new environmental VOC emission regulations which cannot be met by traditional solvent-based coating technologies. The allnex water-based technologies built on 1k, 2k Isocyanate cure (dual cure) systems offer furniture and door makers opportunities to meet environmental controls with equal performance.

  • New product launch
  • Dual cure capability
  • High film clarity and extended pot-life
