| • Reduction of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions resulting in decreased air pollution. • Reduction in worker exposure to hazardous emissions. • Does not require MEKP. • UV resin is not temperature dependent for curing. • Speeds up the curing processes and reduces production time. • Reduces resin waste.
