Wood has been used as a building material by humans throughout history and improved our lives in many facets. Although long used in its simplest form, nowadays, highly complex engineered wood products make it possible to construct buildings 85 meters high entirely out of wood.
Starting at the point when a tree is cut until the final customer can enjoy the finished product, we help to improve the quality and facilitate your work in the areas listed below:
RELEASE AGENTS FOR FIBREBOARDS
With the products of our CONCENTROL LX WP-MDF line you will find the perfect water based release agent for your production of fibreboard, MDF or HDF production regardless of which the resin formulation you use.
The main characteristics of our products are: an extremely high release effect and perfect wetting even at high dilution levels.
RELEASE AGENT FOR PLYWOOD
Our release agent for plywood has a consistent release performance with an extremely high release effect and perfect wetting even at high dilution levels. Using our release agent for Plywood will improve the finish quality of your board’s surface. In addition, our range of specialized products includes release agents for Plywood boards that are coated with a phenolic film layer.
VENEER SURFACE LAMINATION
The application of the veneers to the furniture can be done in several ways, using a wide range of glues. Concentrol’s release agent for veneer application is effective for all adhesives based on urea and melamine resin, further it is safe for all temperatures and press-plates, including anodized heating plates. The product is free of oils and silicones, which allows the subsequent dyeing and varnishing of the veneer surface.
RELEASE AGENTS FOR EDGE BANDING MACHINES
Many parts of furniture, especially in kitchens or bathrooms, are finished with a durable edge. Our release agents for edge banding machines protect all parts (pressure rollers, conveyor belts and plastic surfaces) of your machinery against hotmelt adhesives and also against phenolic resins, gluten glues, dextrin adhesives, dispersion adhesives, melamine and similar resins. We developed the release agent especially for machines equipped with an automatic feeder. Our product is silicon free and dilutable in water. It forms a dry, transparent and abrasion resistant protective film to protect your equipment.
DRY LUBRICANT FOR MACHINERY
We have designed Concentrol LX WL-01 for any machinery in which wood slides over metal, e.g., chop saws, log-splitters, table-cutters or planing / profiling machines. The dry lubricant is specially designed for machines equipped with automatic lubricating pumps, but can also be applied manually.
RELEASE AGENT FOR PAPER IMPREGNATION
Concentrol’s internal release agents are added directly to any aqueous resin system (melamine, aqueous phenolic or urea resin mixtures) and can be used for both high and low pressure impregnation. Our internal release agent prevents the accumulation of residues and adhesion to the pressing plates in subsequent work. We can supply the release agent including a wetting agent or the wetting agent separately for manufacturers’ convenience.
WETTING AGENT FOR IMPREGNATION OF MELAMINE PAPER
In some cases the dosage of the wetting agent has to be increased to obtain a perfect finish of the melamine paper. For these cases we offer the latest technology in wetting agents, which effectively reduce the surface tension of the resin allowing a better penetration into the paper.
CLEANING AGENTS
Concentrol’s cleaning agents and resin dissolvers remove all tree resin residues from saw blades and other woodworking tools and are economical to use as they can be diluted with water. They are non-flammable, non-corrosive and non-distant products that are suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous materials and leave your equipment and tools free of rust and perfectly clean.
