HB* SiO2 Coating Technology -
Fluorine Free Liquid Glass Coatings

This stunning technology is completely fluorine free yet provides outstanding hydrophobicity. The range is suitable for use in all areas but specifically, it is designed for use within the DIY/Retail and Commercial sectors where ease of application in a wide range of environments is essential. The coatings perform in a very similar way to our world renowned Liquid Glass coatings in that they create a protective hydrophobic layer which is exceptionally easy to clean.

*HB = hyperbranched silicon dioxide

Key Attributes

Free from any form of fluorinated agents, essential for use in certain countries
Free from solvents: Alcohol can be added if required for certain applications e.g. leather coating
Ease of application: Easy to apply and very easy to buff when applied to auto surfaces and glass
Excellent easy-to-clean effect: Shower screens, oven fronts and fridge exteriors are cleaned in seconds
Good durability: The coatings will last for approximately one year in areas of low abrasion
Biostatic effect: Reduces proliferation of bacteria
The additives used in order to create HB substrate specific coatings are often commonly used as additives to food or are used in standard domestic cleaning products
