Less Time = More Profit

Mert Hall, CEO of Tecton and a pioneer in the development of dome housing, used our solvent-free composite release agent cleaner, WaterClean, in tandem with solvent-free WaterShield, this composite release agent decision saved dollars that went right to his bottom line. Dome housing production uses an airform that is expanded prior to application of the composite release agent. After the WaterShield application, three inches of 3-lb. density rigid PUR foam is applied. The foam must be held tightly in place without delamination until it cures, the airform is then peeled away for the next phase of the process, a job made to order for WaterShield. It gave the proper holding power during cure with easy mold release when complete. The time required to remove the airform was reduced by 90 percent with an additional benefit of no transfer thanks to the composite release agents used. Ease of application, effective hold and release, no VOCs, faster form removal, no cleanup and efficient coverage that saves on material cost, now combine to equal significant savings for Hall and Tecton when using Zyvax composite release agents.
