IGL Coatings launched Ecocoat Armor, its latest, toughest and most durable coating. Since incorporation, IGL Coatings’ mission has been to improve formulation to extend the life of surfaces. Through the years, IGL has succeeded in creating coatings that resist UV weathering, chemicals, and even corrosion. But one feature that alluded them was scratch resistance. According to its founder, Keong Chun Chieh, “The R&D team at IGL has been researching more ways that provides not only a high resistance to scratches but! it must also have a consistent, fine, luxurious finish.” This gave way to the introduction of Ecocoat Armor, which can be applied onto a variety of surfaces such as wood, metals, paint and concrete, extending the life of the surface. Ecocoat Armor is also tested on its flexibility, impact resistance, chemical resistance. Reinforced with graphene nanotubes, Ecocoat Armor is stronger and tougher against chemicals and corrosion, performing exceptionally well against harsh environments. “The uses of Ecocoat Armor is limited only by your imagination” said Chieh. “It’s strong yet luxurious finish creates boundless opportunities for home and industrial use,” adding that Ecocoat Armor is suitable for furniture, decks, fences, lawnmowers, shelving, machineries, vehicles and more. IGL Coatings created Armor to last longer. Protecting against UV, abrasion, impact and mechanical damage, surfaces are given a longer lease. Armor tested exceptionally well against chemicals and was tested to be safe with the IGL range of series. It’s waterproof, anti-slip abilities gives it that extra grip for areas that frequently get wet, or is near or above water applications. IGL Coating’s Ecocoat Armor is currently available in North America and Malaysia.
