APV Engineered Coatings to exhibit VYNGUARD® product line at IFAI Expo

APV Engineered Coatings will exhibit its re-released VYNGUARD® performance coatings line at IFAI Expo 2016 in Charlotte, N.C., Oct. 19–21.

The line now includes specialty fabrics and leather hide applications. Originally launched for use with non-woven, vinyl substrates, the new line includes seven base chemistries the company custom formulates for each customer:

VYNGUARD® Anti-Graffiti
VYNGUARD® Polycarbonate
VYNGUARD® with Kynar® PVDF
VYNGUARD® Weld-Able PVDF
VYNGUARD® Polyurethane
VYNGUARD® HP Acrylic
VYNGUARD® Vinyl Acrylic

Available in solvent- or water-based, VYNGUARD® chemistries provide an easy-to-apply clear, protective layer that can mitigate plasticizer from migrating through the surface. The formulations exceed industry standards for UV resistance, dirt shedding, moisture resistance, severe stain protection and fungal resistance, depending on the chemistry. Pigmented topcoats or print ink formulations are made with specialty grade inorganic pigments for superior colorfastness. They have long coating lifecycles and provide high-definition print reception, superior dot gain properties and excellent adhesion.

VYNGUARD® is focused on providing superior specialty fabric finishes for the following industries:
Automotive
Marine
Awnings
Rolled Decking
Furniture Fabric
Roofing
Specialty Outdoor Products
Contract Seating
Wallcoverings
