Unicoat | Unilin Technologies
The water-repellent coating Unicoat protects any wood-based floor by actively repelling water away from the joints. Unicoat is applied on the edges of the floorboard during production, so that a fully sealed surface is obtained when the panels are locked together. The Unicoat technology protects your floors against leaks between joints, swelling of the edges and discolored edges of the wooden top layer. As such, it prevents premature wear of the edges of the floorboards, elongating the durability of your floor.
Not only does Unicoat have a triple function, it has also been triple tested. After exceeding all NALFA swelling tests not for 24 hours but also for 48, 72 hours and even up to a week, Unicoat technology also proved to prevent leakage for over 168 hours - that’s one week, while those exact same floors that were left untreated often only last for a few hours or sometimes only a few minutes during NALFA tests.
There are almost no PFAS-free coatings that can protect a floor from water damage. With the Unicoat technology, Unilin revolutionizes the waterproof coating segment by introducing a PFAS-free coating with high performance that also only contains low VOC chemicals. We have chosen to eliminate these harmful chemicals that persist in the environment and pose health concerns.
During production, Unicoat is meticulously applied to the edges of wood-based core boards. This precision application not only ensures unparalleled waterproofing performance but also conserves resources. What sets Unicoat apart is its profound ability to transform wood-based floors into high-quality, waterproof surfaces without altering their core composition.
By minimizing product usage, maintaining the natural integrity of wood, and eliminating harmful chemicals, Unicoat is a responsible choice that resonates with the values of a sustainable future. Unicoat not only protects your floors but also safeguards our environment.
The Characteristics
Our groundbreaking technology takes a unique approach to waterproofing. During production, Unicoat is meticulously applied to the edges of wood-based core boards. This precision application not only ensures unparalleled waterproofing performance but also conserves resources. In stark contrast to traditional methods that often require copious amounts of coating or glue addition to the HDF board, Unicoat achieves waterproofing with an astoundingly minimal product usage. This reduction in material consumption underscores our commitment to sustainability, helping preserve natural resources and reduce waste while improving the recyclability of the laminate floors. Unicoat makes your wood-based floors more resilient without excessive consumption, and in doing so, we reduce waste and minimize the need for frequent replacements.
What sets Unicoat apart is its profound ability to transform wood-based floors into high-quality, waterproof surfaces without altering their core composition. By leaving the wood-based core board otherwise unchanged, Unicoat champions sustainability. We believe in preserving the inherent beauty and integrity of wood, and by doing so, we minimize the ecological impact of floor production.
One of the most significant strides in Unicoat's evolution is its commitment to health-conscious consumers. Unicoat now proudly boasts a PFAS-free formulation. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have gained notoriety for their potential adverse health effects, and their prevalence in consumer products has raised significant concerns. By eliminating PFAS from its composition, Unicoat demonstrates its dedication to offering a safer, healthier choice for consumers.
This transformation reflects the company's forward-thinking approach to meet the evolving needs of the market while making no compromises on product performance. With this development, Unicoat provides peace of mind for those seeking a sustainable and healthy flooring solution, ensuring that the spaces they walk on are not only beautiful but free from harmful chemicals.
Unicoat Waterproof Coating presents a paradigm shift in the flooring industry by redefining how wood-based floors can be protected, all the while adhering to sustainable production principles. By choosing Unicoat, you're opting for a technology that minimizes waste, conserves energy, and promotes eco-friendly, non-toxic materials in the manufacturing process.
