Tennant Coatings launches Eco-MVR 100 moisture mitigation flooring system
Tennant Coatings, manufacturer of cutting-edge industrial floor and wall coatings and a division of floor cleaning machine manufacturer Tennant Company, has launched a 'next generation' moisture mitigation system, the Eco-MVR 100, which provides advanced protection against the deleterious and costly effects of Moisture Vapor Transmission (MVT).
Eco-MVR 100 not only offers contractor-installers and facilities a greater level of defence against concrete moisture vapor damage than ever before, but also helps reduce costs, downtime and waste with its one coat application.
The system's ground-breaking epoxy formulation can withstand very high moisture vapor emission rates of up to 99% in-situ relative humidity per ASTM F2170, even when applied to concrete that is less than 28 days old.
For use under any flooring that cannot tolerate more than 75% in-situ RH, environmentally and user friendly Eco-MVR 100 complies with SCAQMD VOC regulations and can contribute to LEED v4 Indoor Air Quality credits.
"New Eco-MVR 100 is the vanguard of MVT protection in our industry," says Peter Kirton, vice president of Tennant Coatings. "Being able to safeguard our floor surfaces from the negative effects of very high moisture vapor emission rates - and to do that in a single coat application - is a great accomplishment.
"This offers our approved contractors a significant advantage over the competition in both shorter installation times as well as overall system performance."
