Bohle presents a new, highly efficient glass coating product

A new generation of surface protection


09.12.2011 – With BriteGuard®,  Bohle is launching a
revolutionary new protection product for glass and glazed ceramic surfaces, which is both extremely wear resistant and durable. Further, the application process is simple and can be done either manually or mechanically.

There are a multitude of surface protection products for glass and glazed ceramics available in the market offering various degrees of protection for glass. In reality, however, not all live up to the durable protective effect they promise. Moreover, application is often complicated and care problematical. With its new BriteGuard® surface protection system, Germany-based Bohle Group, is taking the first step in offering a new generation of surface coating systems, setting completely new standards as far as application and durability are concerned.

The innovative surface protection system for both smooth and textured glass surfaces is extraordinarily wear resistant and durable. Another advantage is that the BriteGuard® system requires a minimal number of products and can easily be applied, either manually or mechanically. Once again, Bohle offers a highly attractive business opportunity for glass processing companies. In addition to high quality glass products they can supply their customers with a high perceived value surface protection system developed for professional use without expensive application equipment and complex and time-consuming product training.

For Indoor and Outdoor Applications

BriteGuard® is significantly more wear resistant than other surface protection products currently available in the market. By reacting chemically with the surface, the coating forms a high strength functional layer that effectively protects the glass against soil adhesion and glass corrosion. Compared to untreated glass, surfaces protected with BriteGuard® simply stay clean much longer and are much easier to clean. This Bohle innovation demonstrably counters the poor reputation of the durability of surface coating products within the glass trade. BriteGuard® can be used for indoor and outdoor applications and is thus equally suitable for protecting partition walls or glass showers as well as facades.

Clearly structured modular system

When developing BriteGuard®, the main focus was on the easy handling of the coating system both for the glass processing businesses and for the end user. Having this in mind, a clearly structured, simplified, modular system was developed consisting of only few components for pre-treatment, coating and care. This makes selecting the appropriate materials for the respective application intuitively simple.

BriteGuard® Surface Sealer is suitable for protecting smooth glass surfaces and requires a pre-cleaner and final cleaner. For protecting rough surfaces, only BriteGuard® Surface Sealer X is required. Also when it comes to the care for coated glasses, Bohle strives to maintain simple processes as far as possible. Instead of a multi-component product range, the BriteGuard® system consists of a care kit for smooth and rough glass surfaces and a product for regular cleaning. Moreover, the complete coating product package includes the whole array of accessories - ranging from cleaning cloths to protective glasses.
