The robustness of polyurethane is valued as edge protection in various industries. It can be applied seamlessly, and both hardness and surface quality are fully adjustable. With a polyurethane casting system, a safe and high-quality edge protection is also possible for moulded parts with undercuts. The technique can be used for wider and softer personal protection applications, as well as for firm and narrow application such as furniture protection.
Table tops on passenger trains can be designed both as impact protection for passenger safety and as anti-slip for objects. Bumper edges on enclosures not only provide straight edges, they also serve to protect against the ingress of moisture or dirt. In household and office furniture, polyurethane edges ensure durability and provide protection against wear, while suitable additives allow for a variety of uv-stable colours.
