NDUROMATT™

Matting Agents for Paints and Coatings

Honeywell’s NduroMatt product line consists of three products that offer a wide range of performance attributes for architectural, wood, industrial, and functional coatings.

NduroMatt products can completely replace conventional matting agents, or can be used to supplement matte coatings to enhance surface properties.

  • Overview
  • Products
  • Benefits
Matte coatings are more prevalent than ever before, yet the requirements for durability and longevity remain the same. Conventional matting agents make coatings susceptible to surface defects such as burnish, mar and scratch, negatively impacting the durability of matte paints and coatings. Honeywell’s new NduroMatt provides a 2-3 fold improvement over conventional matting agents.

  • Matting Efficiency
  • Burnish Resistance
  • Rub Resistance
  • Viscosity Build
  • Shelf Stability
