Tough performance, ease of application and an incredible texture aren't necessarily something we're used to seeing in the thermoplastic powder coating world. Enter IFS Coatings' Puroplaz® PE20 Texture. Believe it or not, it's been called a groundbreaking thermoplastic polyethylene-based powder coating, and is designed to deliver exceptional durability, flexibility, and aesthetic appeal. This versatile coating can be both sprayed and dip applied, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from trailers to outdoor furniture and playground decking.

Engineered for Toughness and Performance

It creates a tough thermoplastic film that excels in even the harshest conditions. With outstanding abrasion and scratch resistance, as well as superior impact resistance, Puroplaz PE20 Texture is designed to withstand heavy impacts without chipping. It’s the perfect solution for high-traffic areas and outdoor environments where durability is essential.

Tim Brinner, Vice President of Thermoplastics at IFS Coatings, highlights the exceptional formulation of this product: “The formulation expertise that has gone into Puroplaz PE20 Texture is second to none. This powder delivers an extremely tough thermoplastic film, with incredible abrasion and scratch resistance, impact resistance, outstanding hiding capability, and excellent outgassing properties.

Ease of Application and Great Transfer Efficiency

One of the key benefits of Puroplaz PE20 Texture is its application versatility. The powder is engineered to deliver excellent transfer efficiency, making it easy to apply using both electrostatic spray and fluidized bed methods.
