| When
considering the finish to use on any architectural component, a multitude
of factors come into play:- 'How long will the finish last?', 'Will
the finish withstand impact?', 'How many colours can I choose from?'
etc. The following table compares properties and features of various
finishing alternatives: |

| Synthatec
now has over 28 years real time exposure in UK. Our first major project 'George
House' was completed in 1973.
A
full survey and inspection of the building, carried out in
May 2000, confirmed that 'The coating, although showing signs
of wear, is still protecting the substrate from corrosion'
* (*Qualiserve Consultancy May 12th 2000)
The
Synthatec coating, used here in 1973, was at that time,
a 10 year guaranteed product. It's near 30 year (and on-going)
performance exemplifies the protection and decorative qualities
of the Synthatec system.

| Since
the launch of Synthatec over 30 years ago, no claims have been
made under the guarantee. When faced with a multitude of constructional
components, systems and products which have the potential to
suffer one kind of problem or another in service, Synthatec
can be specified in the sound knowledge that it will perform
faultlessly, as it already is doing on thousands of buildings. |
