PPG Introduces Envirocron Primeron

PPG Introduces ENVIROCRON Primeron Powder Primer Series PPG announced today the launch of the PPG ENVIROCRON® Primeron powder primer portfolio, designed to provide high corrosion resistance for metal surfaces such as steel, hot-dip galvanized steel, metallized steel, and aluminum. Lorenzo Soldavini, Technical Manager, Industrial Coatings, PPG Powder, EMEA, said: "Protective primers are the first line of defense to protect metal surfaces from corrosion, the most significant challenge in the metal coating industry. The use of PPG Envirocron Primeron primer in a multi-layer system provides optimal corrosion protection and is the key to extending a product's lifespan and preserving structural integrity." The PPG Envirocron Primeron powder primer portfolio has been tested according to corrosivity categories and approved for coated steel by the QUALISTEELCOAT international quality label. The series covers a wide range of requirements depending on end use, working environment, and substrate used: • PPG Envirocron Primeron ZINC coating is a zinc-rich primer providing strong corrosion protection. • PPG Envirocron Primeron PRO coating is a robust primer base for strong corrosion protection independent of the pre-treatment method. It offers good mechanical performance with a well-balanced property profile. • PPG Envirocron Primeron EDGE coating provides corrosion protection for substrates with sharp edges. It is optimized to remove substrate outgassing. • PPG Envirocron Primeron FLEX coating provides excellent corrosion protection for many substrates, including aluminum and various pre-treatment methods.   Source
