In recent years, the market for shower trays has gradually replaced that for bathtubs. There are several reasons for this change: from a focus on space savings, to installation or manufacturing costs, to design.<\/p>\n
Within the market of shower trays, the best accepted product is the one manufactured using the casting process, using mineral fillers and polyester resin<\/strong>. This method basically consists of mixing the mentioned components together with the dye and spreading it over a mould, which has already received a layer of gelcoat<\/strong>. The gelcoat gives the product better chemical and mechanical resistance properties, as well as being able to include surface treatments such as anti-slip or antimicrobial.<\/p>\n At Omar Coatings<\/strong> we are aware of the demand that exists in the market for these materials and that is why we have products such as POLRES 139\/BV resin<\/strong>, specially formulated for use together with mineral fillers, which can be used to manufacture trays, terrazzo, synthetic marble, flooring, etc<\/strong>. In addition, this resin is characterised by its low heat release during the process and its low colour<\/strong>.<\/p>\n We also stand out for the manufacture of gelcoats, many of which are based on our own POLRES 334 isophthalic resin that has very good chemical properties and resistance to yellowing<\/strong>. One of our gelcoats formulated with this resin is GELCOAT ISO NPG<\/strong>. Thanks to its high resistance to weather and to hydrolysis, it is perfect not only for shower trays, but also for swimming pools, tanks, boats, bodywork, sinks, washbasins and bathtubs<\/strong>. In addition, it can be combined with our Omarcrom pastes to create the desired colour<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Our experience speaks for us and our R&D department works to make us a benchmark company with regards to the research and improvement of all our products. At Omar Coatings<\/strong> we continue researching to develop new products as per the evolution of the market. We want to always be at the forefront and at the service of our customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In recent years, the market for shower trays has gradually replaced that for bathtubs.
