Resinate to Add NMP-free PUDs to its Product Pipeline of 2013

PLYMOUTH, Michigan -- Resinate Materials Group, Inc., a provider of polyurethane dispersion (PUD) coatings for the paints, coatings, adhesives and sealants industries, is pleased to announce it has updated and expanded its product pipeline for 2013. The pipeline will include the addition of several new PUD products based on the companys novel technology. These products include Resinate R-210, an aliphatic, anionic, NMP free polyurethane dispersion, and Resinate R-310, an aliphatic, NMP free, UV cure polyurethane dispersion. Additional products will also include resins specifically designed for adhesion to substrates such as plastic and leather. To accelerate the development of these new product and others, Resinate will transfer resources from R&D and manufacturing efforts associated with its alkyd Resinate R-611 product line and phase out the line from further development and sales activities. These alkyd products are typically supplied in solvents with high VOC levels, and are not consistent with Resinates sustainable chemistry, low VOC business strategy. In contrast, Resinates PUD products are waterborne, low VOC products that support a greener environment.

Stephen Hall, COO comments, "Our technology is an exciting tool that can be applied to a wide variety resin products with PUDs best exemplifying the value our technology can bring to the market. We have made a strategic decision to reallocate the alkyd resources towards products directly related to PUDs, whose chemistry is aligned with our core competencies. Although the R-611 line of products were great, we believe that our PUDs will be a better use of our organizations resources." Ben Wodicker, Sr. VP continues, "Our updated pipeline strategy is now fully aligned with our core technology. This means we will be more efficient in bringing products to market. Furthermore, by moving away from alkyds, we are able to focus on more technologically advanced chemistries, and products that are waterborne and environmentally sustainable."
