Perstorp announces the launch of a new fast-drying aliphatic polyisocyanate for the American market that can boost the drying speed of coatings without impacting on their outstanding durability or flexibility.

Perstorp presents Charmor®, the #1 choice for a new, ground-breaking, generation of intumescent coatings
Perstorp presents Charmor® polyols, essential components for a new, ground-breaking, generation of intumescent coatings. Superior micronized and supermicronized Charmor polyols create an advanced char barrier for steel and wooden structures. When exposed to fire, intumescent coatings with Charmor swell 10 to 100 times their original thickness to form an insulating carbon char barrier that protects the substrate and building structure for a longer period of time than any other comparable product. This may save lifes.
