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.
