Force 8:"Over the years we have continuously improved our one length profile bending process, and educated the market about its strength and aesthetics, but in this instance, there is no other option available" , comments Dennis Sumner, managing director
Bohle: "The ability to cut application times down by 30-minutes or more is a massive advantage, regardless of whether that’s in manufacture or on-site application. As the leading surface protection coating technology for glass BriteGuard has always performed to a very high standard" . Said: Dave Broxton, managing director.
Roto Frank: The new coating is called Roto AVT, or Anti-Viral Technology. It works in two ways: firstly by preventing viruses from attaching to the surface, and secondly with active ingredients that deactivate or "kill" any virus particles that do come into contact with the handle.
