Ancamine® 2880 offers excellent mechanical properties, abrasion resistance, and color stability throughout its service life. With its low color and high gloss, it is perfect for flooring applications that require excellent surface appearance. This low-viscosity curing agent offers ambient and low-temperature curing for easy application, and its rapid hardness development enables early walk-on floors. It is a suitable choice not only for industrial and decorative floor coatings, but also for general high solids coatings.

Eaton's filter cartridges for industrial processes include the LOFTREX, LOFPLEAT, LOFMEM, and LOFMET product series. The expanded portfolio includes four filter cartridge types. Meltblown depth filter cartridges offer a wide range of applications for the retention of contaminants across a broad spectrum of particle sizes. Pleated filter cartridges are particularly suitable for retention with a uniform grain size distribution. Membrane filter cartridges are used for filtration according to absolute retention rates. Metal filter cartridges are particularly suitable for applications with very high temperatures.

The new EcoGun AS MAN DC/EC is a more sustainable way of painting, reducing overspray by about 40%. The spray gun comes in two versions, with direct or external charging. It is equally suitable for applying solvent- and water-based paints, and its ergonomic handle and low weight make for comfortable work, even for extended periods. The external charging version of the gun positively charges the paint particles by passing them through an electrostatic field. A negatively charged work piece then attracts these paint particles.

Stahl Integra® Dry 725 offers a balanced performance between repellency, durability, and adhesion. The durable, water-repellent (DWR) technology, StayDry, repels water from fabric by modifying the surface tension of fibers. The solution can be combined with other top or back coatings, and is specifically designed for technical textile applications. As a fluorine-free, waterborne coating that is cured at low temperatures, Stahl Integra Dry 725 can help reduce environmental impact without compromising on quality.

Sherwin-Williams has introduced Emulate, a new lineup of printed metal coatings that mimics natural building materials like wood, stone, and metal, offering architects new ways to stand out while fitting in with future color trends. The coatings use a rotogravure printing process to impress natural elements onto the metal substrate during application, allowing for an unlimited array of patterns and rich, multi-layer effects. Emulate protects with a combination of corrosion resistance from backer and primer layers that offer long-term defense from rust.

The new UCP Series ANSI-dimensional magnetic drive centrifugal pump features heavy-duty construction and wide hydraulic coverage for various surface finishing applications. The series serves as a drop-in replacement for any manufacturers’ ANSI-dimensional pump, thereby reducing the cost of ownership to the user. It features a ductile iron exterior with corrosion-resistant, non-metallic interior components, including ETFE and polypropylene to handle a wide variety of surface finishing chemicals.
