Its capabilities include testing facilities for polymer and textile coatings and equipment to manufacture plastic films or coating support systems and textiles.
Repellent plastics and textiles can be subjected to extensive endurance tests, including thermo gravimetric analysis, thermo tests for PVC, heat and cold (jungle test), tension, exposure (QUV/spray, QUV/Se, Sun test XLS+), wash resistance and watering. Textiles can be finished using the pad transfer technique, extraction technique or dye bath method.
“The equipment allows us to conduct application tests at laboratory level to advance product developments and optimisation which, so far, had to be carried out in customers’ manufacturing processes at great expense in terms of machinery, time and energy,” said Sanitized CEO Urs Stalder.
