Adapta, is part of the VIVENDI® UDS (Ultra Durable
System) range for architectural planning and
design. The colours of the collection boast a two-coat system which provides excellent durability. Also, the application of a second layer of transparent Eternal clear coat provides an excellent chemical resistance.
Furthermore, all the colours have been developed with Adapta Bonding System® Technology, which provides and guarantees a homogeneous visual effect. Colour and gloss resist to light in compliance with international quality specifications such as Qualicoat Class 3, GSB Premium and AAMA 2605-17 (Table 1). In fact, after 3.000 hours Suntest and 2.000 hours QUV the gloss retention is among 50%-90% depending on the colour. The collection bears an environmental product declaration (EPD) and has been certified pursuant to standard ISO 16000-9:2006, having been awarded CHEMICAL TEST
