EPS Launches Fluorosurfactant-Free Acrylic Resin for Industrial Wood Coatings

Engineered Polymer Solutions (EPS) is expanding its industrial wood portfolio with the launch of EPS 2460, a new all-acrylic polymer that is an excellent choice for matte to semi-gloss coatings.

“The proprietary technology of EPS 2460 enables our customers to develop products that meet their performance requirements without the use of intentionally added fluorosurfactants,” said Dr. Robert Sandoval, EPS Director of Research and Development. “Wood coatings made with this new polymer offer outstanding performance in outdoor applications with increased durability, excellent adhesion, hardness, block resistance and chemical resistance.”

EPS 2460 is designed for factory-applied, high-performance exterior stained wood coatings for a wide range of applications such as decks, shutters, windows and doors. It is also a recommended choice for interior applications such as kitchen and bathroom cabinetry.

Makarand Gawade, EPS Global Marketing Director, commented, “At EPS, we are committed to continuous innovation and we are driven by our determination to develop next-generation products that will enable our customers to formulate innovative coatings.”
