Product History

Technology leadership through innovation. The early years was mostly characterised by the development of standard systems for the regional market.

1976	Development of Miraplast, 2K PU coating based on a combination of NC and saturated polyester, meshed with aliphatic Iso-Cyanate

1977	Miratop 1K acid curing coating

1978	Hydroplast 1K water-based coating based on a combination of pure acrylates and PU dispersions

1979	Miracryl 2K PU coating based on a combination of celluloseacetobutyrate and pure acrylate, meshed with aliphatic Iso-Cyanate

1990	Hydro UV-coatings based on unsaturated acrylate dispersions

1992	Hydroplast 2K-water-based coatings based on a combination of pure PU dispersions, meshed with aliphatic Iso-Cyanate

	Since the beginning of the ’90s we have been developing more and more into a technology leader. The following products and technologies have been developed by the fundamental research team at Klumpp Coatings.

1994	Hydro UV primer and high-solid primer, which creates an outstanding bond between substrate and the coating layer

1995	Anti-abrasive sealers which bring about major improvements in abrasive strength

1998	Anti-scratch UV finishing based on nanotechnology, with outstanding properties counteracting surface scratches

2001	Hydrophobing agents that impregnate the lamella joints and ends of the panels offering optimal protection from water ingress

2002	UV oils based on natural, sustainable raw materials

2004	2C UV-hand putty featuring the "double cure" method

2005	Technology for direct printing on HDF panels for the laminate industry Link to product innovations

2006	Bonding adhesive for coating pre-finished UV parquet surface for handcraft repairs with good adhesion from depth-cured UV surfaces (even anti-scratch) without requiring sanding

	Micro bevel coatings for the parquet and laminate industry

2008	Bonding adhesive for coating pre-finished UV parquet surfaces for industrial repair work with good adhesion from completely-cured UV surfaces (even anti-scratch) without requiring sanding Link to product innovations

	Light-resistant DD coating - particularly good at protecting light woods against yellowing due to sunlight

	Improved Hydro UV – now featuring improved user-friendliness and blocking stability

	Miracryl® with even better filling properties

	The new allround-primer for all types of wood, even exotic timber!
	Link to product innovations

2009	Coating systems for Digital Printing Technology on wooden substrates and (paper-)foils

	Anti-scratch UV-coating systems for added value on PVC substrates

	3D-UV-structure-coatings for haptical and optical appearance close to real wood on DPL and digitally printed surfaces

	All-over Syncronized Pore UV-coatings

2010	Antistatic UV-coatings

Without launching these innovations which brought about major improvements in quality, the high quality standards of today’s modern UV surfaces would not be possible.
