Duranar® VARI-COOL® Coatings
Imagine a roof or wall panel that subtly shifts in color from warm terra cota to rich copper-brown,
then to vivid tropical green. Formulated with groundbreaking polychromatic pigments, Duranar VARICool coatings combine proprietary infrared-reflective coating technology that keeps buildings cool
with the vibrant color palette, durability, color fastness and protection architects and designers have
associated with the Duranar coatings brand for nearly 50 years.
Duranar Pearl Coats
Pearl effects get lost when mixed directly into the basecoat of lighter colors like white, ivory, and
beige. That’s why Duranar pearl coats distribute the effect into the clearcoat instead, allowing
basecoats of any color to shine through. Shimmering effects pigments are chosen specially to
enhance each basecoat color offered, helping Duranar pearl coats create a unique and innovative
three-dimensional surface experience.
Duranar Textured Powder Coatings
Duranar powder coatings coatings offer exceptional hardness and environmentally friendly
formulations. Architects and designers can specify Duranar powder coatings that are specially
textured to achieve a distinct salt-and-pepper appearance in a wide range of colors.
Duranar Coatings with Lead-Free Pigments
PPG now offers Duranar coatings in bright colors, including vibrant oranges and yellows, formulated
with lead-free pigments. The picture shown depicts our lead-free pigments after five years of South
Florida exposure testing and demonstrates why these durable, color-fast coatings are on the cutting
edge of environmentally advanced coatings solutions.
Duranar Patterned Effect Coatings
Duranar coating technology is ideal for creating exotic finishes for almost any kind of pre-painted
metal application. They can transform metallic coated steel substrates into brilliant, resilient finishes
that will look new for decades. Get the exotic, one-of-a-kind look your project demands – without the
exotic metal prices.
