GBhydrophobic - Easy-to-clean coating
Aggressive environmental influences and persistent soiling lead to permanent visual and functional impairments on susceptible substrates. As a result, the time-consuming and costly cleaning effort increases.
Our hydrophobic coating GBhydrophobic counteracts these negative influences and creates a permanent pearling and non-stick effect against aqueous and organic liquids. The adhesion of dirt particles to the surfaces of the substrate is made noticeably more difficult. The contact of the coated surfaces with water facilitates the removal of these substances. The cleaning effort is thereby reduced and surfaces are sustainably protected against aggressive environ-mental influences.
