MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Valspar Wood
coatings, a leading manufacturer of coatings for prefinished
flooring, siding, moulding, kitchen cabinets, furniture, and other
building products, has introduced a new family of coatings —
LifeshieldTM — for North
America industrial flooring manufacturers.
LifeshieldTM provides best-in-class durability, scuff
and scratch resistance, and moisture protection, while providing
outstanding clarity and appearance. As with all Valspar industrial
flooring coatings, the system is designed with industrial
operations in mind to ensure maximum efficiency and usability for
manufacturers.
"When we talked to flooring manufacturers, they told us that
they really wanted to see a clear connection between coating system
technical attributes and what their end customers want in terms of
performance," said Craig Lyerly,
business segment /marketing manager for Valspar Wood coatings.
"With LifeshieldTM, we developed a family of coatings
with that end customer in mind, supported by extensive testing and
benchmarking. So it's really a win-win, both for the homeowner and
the manufacturer."
Information about LifeshieldTM, including a
LifeshieldTM video, can be found on a new webpage --
