UV board
- Specification
- Technical Data
UV board is an advanced engineered panel featuring a cured ultraviolet (UV) resin coating that delivers exceptional surface hardness, aesthetic appeal, and environmental resistance. This high-performance material is manufactured through automated UV curing technology, creating a seamless, non-porous surface ideal for demanding interior and exterior applications.
Key Features
Ultra-Durable Finish – 3H-5H pencil hardness rating withstands scratches and abrasions
Instant Cure Technology – UV lamps polymerize coatings in seconds (vs. days for conventional finishes)
Hygienic Surface – Non-absorbent, bacteria-resistant (<0.5 CFU/cm² per ISO 22196)
Color Stability – ΔE<1.0 after 1000 hours QUV accelerated weathering
Fire Performance – Achieves Class B-s1,d0 per EN 13501-1 standard
