Children’s Play Artificial Tree

Our client was tasked with creating a large artificial tree for a low maintenance themed environment where children can play.
The Speedliner product  is typically used for coating the cargo bed areas of pickup trucks, on this project the customer chose to use Speedliner as a highly durable impact and puncture resistant surface over rigid urethane foam. The brush applied Speedliner simulates the texture and appearance of a natural tree.

Waterproof Fish Tanks

We at industrial polymers are frequently asked to formulate coatings for containment and waterproofing. Here is an example of a large Koi Carp breeding tank located on a farm in the United Kingdom. The concrete block provides a surface which allows algae and bacteria to grow beneath the surface and is prone to cracking and leakage over time. Our Speedliner spray-on truck bed liner product was used on this project. Speedliner worked well for this application because it provides a thick rubber coating which bonds well to concrete surfaces.

It also has enough flexibility to move with the Tank as it settles and cracks from the weight of water and changes in atmospheric temperatures over the seasons. Speedliner provides an easy to clean Nonabsorbent colored liner over the concrete block and mortar. When mixed Speedliner changes from a liquid into a paste like consistency which enables it to be applied onto vertical surfaces in high thickness without sagging or running. Speedliner can be used only in fresh or saltwater applications; it cannot be used in chlorinated swimming pools. While some of our customers routinely use Speedliner in the construction of fish holding tanks we strongly recommend you allow Speedliner time to fully cure before installing your fish and test the water before use.

Double Decker Bus

The next time you’re on top of a London tour bus you may see our Speedliner coating on the city tour. For many years companies charged with keeping the city tour buses in good working order have fought a battle against corrosion and leakage. The floors of these vehicles see a tremendous amount of foot traffic, movement and flexing, as they travel round the streets of London. Many different coatings were tried, but only Speedliner has proven to have the high strength and flexibility required. Speedliner provides a comfortable, non-slip rubber walk surface which is easily cleaned and prevents rain water leakage into first level passenger compartments. It withstands expansion and contraction of the structure and provides an added level of sound deadening between floors. Speedliner is also easily applied/repaired using ordinary painting equipment and provides a nice looking semi gloss, textured appearance.
