Evaluated Alternative Decovery® Bio-Based High-Performance Resins for Interior Flooring Decovery® resins are partially made from renewable materials and show a similar or even superior performance compared to conventional waterborne resins. Decovery® contains up to 49% bio-based content and achieves a carbon footprint reduction of up to 34%, thereby enabling companies to develop a more sustainable paint. Decovery® is also a safer alternative. We are pushing the boundaries to offer increasingly healthier solutions. We successfully substituted substances such as NMP, APEO/NPEO and organotin and are continuously pushing to deliver the lowest possible amount of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Furthermore, Decovery® is proven to deliver the highest quality across a range of indoor and outdoor applications in demanding specialty products. Our paint resins are durable and chemical-resistant; they provide a great finish with no yellowing effect and feel smooth to the touch. While being partially biobased, Decovery® performs equally to (and in some instances even better than) all fossil oil-based urethane equivalents.
