21.07.2005

Novacel, a world leader in innovative industrial surface protection solutions, has launched Novacel 9377, the first adhesive film without solvent for the protection of car bodies during transport and storage. Through the launch of Novacel 9377, the French company is underpinning its commitment to a sustainable development policy.

Novacel 9377 features a 60µm adhesive film with a polyolefines basis, white in colour, and makes it possible to successfully protect car bodies against external aggressions (such as acid rains, bird droppings and tool marks). The adhesive film can be exposed to outdoor ageing for up to six months. (Polyolefines are designed and used for the effective neutralisation of residual amounts of acids that are released in decomposition or catalytic processes.)

Novacel 9377 is manufactured on a completely new coating line; thanks to the qualitative and cost advantages that this new machine offers, Novacel’s latest film is particularly competitive in the automotive market. Novacel 9377 also comes with the client company’s trademark, advertising message or technical information, which can all be printed on the film on request.

The adhesive film is supplied in rolls of 200m, and from 30mm to 2,800mm in width.
