Global Paint Network News: KCC launched the first organic waterborne fire-retardant coating "Fire Mask AQ Series" in Korea. The Fire Mask AQ-1000 and AQ-2000 products that dry at a quarter of the existing oil-based fire-retardant coatings, and can be applied twice a day, are high-performance products that can shorten the application time and minimize coating film defects during application.
The Fire Mask AQ series is a halogen-free eco-friendly product that minimizes VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) content and does not emit harmful substances.

Organic waterborne refractory coatings are products that replace the oil-based resin of the paint with water-soluble resin on the basis of fire resistance, strengthening environmental protection.
