Dunn-Edwards Launches Ultrashield: A New Series Of Heavy-Duty Industrial Coatings

    ULTRASHIELD provides an unrivaled solution for commercial, water and wastewater, bridge and highway, healthcare, and other projects that require prolonging the service life of surfaces, structures, and equipment.

    Dunn-Edwards Corporation announced the debut of ULTRASHIELD, a heavy-duty industrial maintenance coatings series created with professionals in mind. With three different coating options, ULTRASHIELD provides an unrivaled solution for commercial, water and wastewater, bridge and highway, healthcare, and other projects that require prolonging the service life of surfaces, structures, and equipment.

    “As a response to the rising demand for long-term asset protection in industrial projects, I’m elated to be pushing forward a line of two-component, problem-solving technology solutions engineered to meet the protective needs in moderate and severe environments,” said Tim Bosveld, Vice President of Product Management at Dunn-Edwards. “ULTRASHIELD provides the critical corrosion, chemical, and abrasion resistance at every stage of the coatings project, allowing you to focus on what’s most important – getting back to work and serving your customers at full capacity.”

    The ULTRASHIELD series includes a full range of base coats and topcoats to fulfill the demands of any service environment. Each product is described below.

    • Base coat or primer
        • ULTRASHIELD Aluminum Epoxy is a low-VOC, high-performance, aluminum-filled, micaceous iron oxide (MIO) epoxy designed to give superior corrosion protection on poorly prepared steel. This base coat/primer, designed for use on metal, masonry, and steel, can lengthen service life and improve film strength while curing quickly.
        • ULTRASHIELD Epoxy Penetrating Sealer is a high-solids, high-performance universal tie-coat designed to give superior wicking properties, resulting in excellent adhesion to a wide range of moderately prepared bare and previously coated surfaces. This base coat/primer provides specifiers with a variety of topcoat options while also extending service life.
    • Base coat/primer, topcoat
        • ULTRASHIELD Gloss Water-Based Epoxy is a high-performance, water-based epoxy designed to offer excellent chemical, corrosion, and abrasion protection on drywall, concrete, and properly primed steel surfaces. This base coat/primer and topcoat cures quickly, allowing for a swift return to service. It is also resistant to repeated chemical cleaning.
        • ULTRASHIELD Gloss Epoxy is a high-performance, high-build epoxy that is highly resistant to chemicals and corrosion. It is suited for use on concrete and steel surfaces. This base coat/primer and topcoat have excellent adhesion and tolerance on moderately prepared surfaces, extending service life, lowering maintenance costs, and increasing overall productivity.
    • Ultra-weatherable topcoat
      • ULTRASHIELD Acrylic Polyurethanes are high-performance coatings designed to offer outstanding impact and abrasion resistance while maintaining a long-lasting finish. This ultra-weatherable topcoat saves time and money by lowering maintenance expenses because it can be reapplied forever. It is best suited for concrete, metal, or other surfaces that require optimum protection.

    ULTRASHIELD will be available at select Dunn-Edwards Industrial Tint locations. Dunnedwards.com/find-a-store will help you find a location near you. Please visit dunnedwards.com to discover more about the ULTRASHIELD Series and the whole Dunn-Edwards product line.
