With the addition of FROGCoat™ Coatings, Streamline Automation becomes a one-stop-shop for their clients’ foam cutting, carving and coating needs.
CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA, March 31, 2009 – Streamline Automation today introduced FROGCoat™ Coatings, a new line of advanced coatings and related materials for sculptural, architectural and mold making applications. With the addition of coatings to their offering of foam cutting equipment, Streamline can now provide their clients with a turnkey production solution that improves process efficiencies and end product quality.
For those who work with foam, whether it’s for themed environments, props, concrete molds or architectural foam, the hard coating process is absolutely critical for the quality and durability of the end product. FROGCoat™ Coatings are a proven means of coating foam products with a durable finish that can hold up in both internal and external environments, regardless of the conditions. As Streamline Automation’s President Dwayne Lehman explained, “These are specialized coatings for specialized applications. They are ideal materials for the kind of artistic applications our clients specialize in, so they don’t have to work with coatings or suppliers not suited to their lines of work.”
FROGCoat™ Coatings are backed by a team with extensive experience both with the coatings themselves and in related production environments. “With the in-house expertise Streamline has, we can support our coatings with comprehensive training programs and detailed technical support tailored to artistic applications,” Lehman explains. “Our clients get everything they need to take their projects from start to finish.” The addition of FROGCoat™ Coatings to the FROG3D™ line of foam cutting and carving equipment means that clients can now source all of their needs from one supplier. Each FROG3D™ component has been designed and tested together, so clients get an integrated solution and avoid the hassles associated with managing multiple suppliers.
The FROGCoat™ Coatings line-up includes:
FROGCoat™ 100 Series Spray Coatings - FROGCoat™ 100 Series Spray Coatings include coatings and primers that are applied to foam pieces to create a durable and impact-resistant shell in both smooth and textured finishes.
