- The development of
HECORAD systems has given ILVA Polimeri extensive experience in cutting residual emissions in furniture. ILVA is now making this know-how available to steering wheel manufacturers, coupled with high levels of performance.
The major international automobile companies are nowadays focusing on the safety and well-being of individuals within the private environment, tackling the problem of residual emissions and establishing tight controls on the levels of volatile materials emitted within the car. This applies particularly to interior parts in plastic and varnished wood - mainly the steering wheel and dashboard finish - usually in various types of briar-root.
It's long time since ILVA Polimeri successfully dealt with the problem of residual emissions in furniture through the development of its
HECORAD systems. These are innovative, virtually emission-free industrial varnish systems for modern furniture.
Today ILVA Polimeri's laboratories apply the expertise acquired through
HECORAD to the development of specific polyurethane varnish systems for wooden steering wheels, thus allowing one of the largest steering wheel manufacturer to obtain approval for supplying automobile companies.
The varnish system developed by lLVA Polimeri for wooden steering wheels have no negative effects and keep unaltered the range of performance usually required for these kinds of products. These parameters are both aesthetic (including colour, brightness and transparency) and functional -(toughness, coverage, wear and flexibility). These performance levels are maintained even under the severest operational conditions predicted for these products - light, temperature, thermal shocks. The system features low residual emission levels in conformity to the stringent regulations imposed by the largest automobile manufacturers.
