Challenge:

Exopack Advanced Coatings manufactures a standard hardcoated polyester film, coated with a UV absorbing, optically clear adhesive. This product is used as window safety film in both domestic, office and school applications. The hardcoat is required to prevent the film from being scratched when being cleaned. Optical clarity and transparency are vital to the film's usage. However, the market demanded a next generation improved hard coat. The challenge was to develop a super hardcoat that retained the minimal distortion levels currently produced while offering greater scratch resistance.

Solution:

Exopack Advanced Coatings' team of chemists and technologists developed a Super Hardcoat Window Film which provided a higher scratch resistance. The optical qualities and uniformity benefits of the original product were not compromised with the coating of the super hardcoat. The new superhardcoat provides a top-end addition to customers' product ranges and offers them a competitive edge in a demanding market.
