Mankiewicz will Present a 3-in-1 Lightweight Solution At AIX Hamburg

Sustainable Lightweight Layers 

ICoatings are an inherently lightweight solution for creating high-tech surfaces that bring design into the cabin. The latest product innovation from coatings manufacturer Mankiewicz focuses on the underneath of the visible surface as well as the efficient topcoat.

Below the surface: innovative filler and primer layer

At AIX, Mankiewicz will present a 3-in-1 lightweight solution: ALEXIT® FST PrimeFill. It is a pore filler, primer, and filler in one, saving time during application and weight during operation. Another notable sustainability feature is, that it is a water-based product that eliminates the intermediate drying time between filler and primer. 

These technical advances do not affect the decorative effect of the final layer. Without compromising the visual appearance, ALEXIT FST PrimeFill is a lightweight solution that even helps to prevent the so-called telegraphing effect. Regardless of whether the airline is looking for a high quality design effect finish or a long lasting, highly economical textured surface, PrimeFill is the enabler for a high performance finish.

When it comes to making aviation more sustainable, every kilogram counts. Multiply the weight savings of each aircraft by the size of the fleet, and you will have a significant sustainability impact.

Finishing touch in one layer

Focusing on the final layer in combination with process advantages, ALEXIT® FST SelfTex is a efficient and high-quality one layer system to create uniform textures. You can achieve outstanding visual effects in a wide color and effect range. The self-texturing topcoat is available in metallic, translucent, frosted glass effect as well as in solid colors.

The textures directly from the spray gun are applicable as water and solvent based system and they come along with FST properties and durability in regard to abrasion and scratch resistance.

The lightweight duo helps to optimize process times and minimize the layer structure. And it is only one of many developments that Mankiewicz has driven forward in the last decade to contribute to environmental protection and sustainability. Mankiewicz will be exhibiting its latest highlights at AIX, stand 7E40.
