The keynote theme of the second issue of our newsletter for customers and business partners is water. We take the idea that “water is green” very seriously because by producing zero-VOC or cosolvent-free polyurethane dispersions (PUDs), for example, we minimize the impact on the environment. Whatever waterborne raw materials we develop, you can be sure their excellent ecological properties will be matched by high quality. The Bayhydrol® product range, for example, combines quality and high formulation flexibility with environmental sustainability for a wide variety of applications.
In this issue we show how our waterborne technology makes high-performance industrial flooring or furniture coatings possible and how our waterborne 2K polyurethanes combine high functionality with low viscosity for automotive refinishing applications, for example. As one of the world’s leading manufacturers of waterborne dispersions, we are convinced that these raw materials create more added value for our customers than just green technology. Superior drying behavior and chemical resistance are just two of the properties I could mention. The main objective of this newsletter is to stimulate a dialog with our customers.
And it is with this in mind that I would invite you all to talk to us about these articles, our products and, above all, about your needs!
I hope you find this newsletter enjoyable and useful!
