uniRASE Dry Erase Coatings

UNICHEM’s NANO technology offers enhanced levels of scuff resistance and durability to either the uniRASE 300 or 500 series of dry erase technology.

UNICHEM’s Solution to Dry Erase Coatings Challenges

While dry erase boards have been around for decades, the industry offered limited choices with either heavy glass, a costly porcelain finish board or an economical laminate film. The less expensive options delivered poor performance with ghosting (not erasing completely), premature wear and required frequent cleaning. Traditional dry erase coatings still had limitations without post-forming capability, offering only rectangular boards or panels inserted into frames.

With increased popularity of dry erase technology, a more cost-effective, efficient manufacturing process was needed to expand the market.  Dry erase coatings coil applied to steel substrates enable office product and dry erase board manufacturers to expand the possibilities with dry erase doors, panels, cubicles, 3D shapes or curved surfaces.

uniRASE provides dry erase board manufacturers a surface that minimizes ghosting and shadowing, always keeping your white board fresh and ready to use. UNICHEM has developed dry erase technology for coil coated substrates that can be post-formed to accommodate manufacturers and end users.

uniRASE delivered the solution with dry erase technology to meet the needs of a Fortune 20 high-tech company’s corporate office and provides high-performance dry erase solutions to one of the world’s leading office furniture manufacturers.

Dry erase technology continues to play an important role in many critical thinking applications, including:

• Corporate boardrooms
• Schools and universities
• Medical facilities
• Speaking and coaching events

UNICHEM supports innovative dry erase technology to expand the possibilities with superior performance to end users and cost savings to manufacturers. Unlike the traditional glass or porcelain dry erase boards, coil coated dry erase finishes can be stamped, cut, sheared, roll formed or shaped into virtually any shape or size.

uniRASE NANO technology enhances the durability and scuff resistance of our dry erase coatings on any size or shape of surface, in both the uniRASE 300 and uniRASE 500 technology, protecting the finish and any graphic sublimation. Also consider incorporating our uniCLER antimicrobial technology that prevents bacteria and virus growth and the spread of harmful pathogens.

Benefits of uniRASE Dry Erase Technology

uniRASE technology delivers many benefits with long lasting, superior eraseability performance.  We offer high-gloss or low-gloss for projections, sublimation to include printing of logos for increased brand awareness with photo quality images or graphics. Permanent inks can be infused into the coating while retaining dry erase ability, enhancing visual impact.

Our dry erase technology prevents ghosting and shadowing at a significantly lower cost than porcelain or glass options. UNICHEM was quoted by the American Coatings Association, Taking Dry-Erase Boards to a New Dimension, “In the eraseability tests, the coating has to show little to no wear through all the mark-erase cycles. It is also important to build in resistance to moisture because some common dry erase products tend to ghost severely in high humidity climates”.
