Durable protection for wooden houses fast and easy with Tikkurila ProHouse method
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Tikkurila Oyj, Press Release, October 6, 2010 at 9.00 am (CET+1)
Tikkurila wants to help its customers make sustainable choices. The company
develops its operations continuously to be able to offer innovative and
environmentally friendly products and services to different customer groups and
markets. The Tikkurila ProHouse method, which is being launched today at the
FinnBuild 2010 Fair, is an answer to the wishes of the building industry,
sawmill industry and end users of wooden structures.
The ProHouse method utilizes waterborne Ultra products based on the latest
technology in the paint industry. The core of the method comprises treatment
with Ultra Pro, which gives protection to wooden surfaces in an industrial
painting process whereby two layers of top coat are applied on exterior wooden
panels and boards without a separate primer. Depending on the painting system
used, a maintenance interval of 10 or 15 years can be achieved. For wood treated
with the ProHouse method, Tikkurila promises the best quality and weather
resistance on the market.
The idea of the ProHouse surface treatment is producing ready-to-use wooden
materials to manufacturers of prefab houses, building companies and consumers.
The best possible end result is achieved, when wooden panels and boards are
painted in the factory under controlled and optimized conditions. When needed,
the building may be overcoated on the construction site using either semi-matt
Ultra house paint or matt Ultra Matt house paint.
As many as three work stages previosly done on the construction site can be
replaced by using the ProHouse method: priming, primer coat and top coat. This
will mean savings in working costs and also speed up both the planning and
building processes.
There are many factors with adverse effects on exterior wooden surfaces:
sunlight, temperature changes, humidity as well as various mechanical and
biological stresses. Tikkurila's Ultra products, based on a polyacrylate binder,
give the best possible protection during the construction phase. No harmful
solvents are emitted during painting, and any excess panels or boards can be
easily recycled.
While painting wooden materials in the factory, Tikkurila's extensive color
range for exterior paints can be utilized, and Kaunis Talo color combinations
can be used for exterior color design. Thanks to Tikkurila's sophisticated
tinting technology, the specified color will be reproduced as desired on the
wooden surface, and the color and the gloss will remain unchanged regardless of
changing weather conditions.
