HMG Paints Ltd, the UK’s largest independent paint manufacturer, has announced the launch of Hydrosol a new range of hybrid coatings designed for the metal fabrication marketplace. These innovative protective coatings bring together the superior performance of solvent-based paints with the environmental advantages of water-based products, allowing users the opportunity to reduce their VOC output without compromising in performance. The first product to launch in this range is Hydrosol QD Primer.
The Hydrosol QD Primer is an alkyd-based, quick-drying primer designed for ultimate versatility and efficiency. It boasts outstanding adhesion, superior moisture resistance, and exceptional corrosion protection, thanks to the incorporation of modified Zinc Phosphate. Ideal for use on suitably prepared structural steel, chassis, and steel fabrications, this primer can be applied effortlessly using either roller, airless or conventional spray methods.
Early adopters of Hydrosol QD Primer are already identifying several benefits including increased coverage compared to competitor products and improved efficiency in application. A key reason for this is volume solids of Hydrosol QD Primer which stands at 55% in comparison to approximately 40% for competitor equivalents.
"Our new Hydrosol QD Primer represents a significant advancement in protective coatings and is a testament to the work done by our Research & Development team to bring innovations to the market" said Paddy Dyson, Marketing Manager of HMG Paints. "This product not only meets the high-performance standards our customers expect from us, but also aligns with our commitment to environmental sustainability. It is the first piece of the jigsaw in our Hydrosol brand, with a variety of exciting products set to join this range in the near future."
The second product set to soon join the range will be Hydrosol Compliant DTM, a Direct to Metal paint which users can apply directly to bare or primed metal surfaces. Being PG6/23 11 Compliant, the product is ideal as a single coat primer finish for use on stillages, skips, containers, agricultural and construction equipment and machinery. With lower VOCs in comparison to solvent based equivalent products and available in a range of colours including RAL & BS, this next product in the Hydrosol range will be the ideal choice for OEMs and refinishers.
All HMG Paints products, including the new Hydrosol range, are manufactured in Manchester, under the stringent quality control of an ISO 9001 management system. The company's dedication to quality and innovation is further affirmed by its Made in Britain accreditation.
