Facebook← Back to What warranty does a resin floor provide?
The clarity and brightness of resin floors and surfaces depend heavily on protection from sunlight. Integrated UV filters play a crucial role in extending the lifespan and appearance of clear epoxy finishes, offering an additional layer of defence against yellowing and colour change.
What is an Integrated UV Filter in Resin?
An integrated UV filter is an additive built into modern epoxy resin formulas, providing resilience against the effects of ultraviolet light. Over time, exposure to sunlight can cause traditional resins to discolour or develop an unsightly yellow tinge. The UV filter helps slow this process, maintaining the resin’s clarity for as long as possible, especially important for surfaces where aesthetics are key.
Care, Usage, and Buying Tips
While an integrated UV filter significantly reduces the risk of yellowing, it is advised to avoid constant direct sunlight where possible, as no resin is entirely immune over extended periods. For best results, select a resin specifically formulated with UV protection and ensure it also matches your application thickness. For example, “Trasparente” Clear Epoxy Resin is suitable for castings up to 2cm and offers a 10-year anti-yellowing warranty. Always follow manufacturer instructions regarding mixing and curing to maximise performance.
When UV Resistance Matters Most
- Floors or surfaces exposed to natural or artificial sunlight, such as conservatories, studios, or entrances.
- Artistic installations and furniture where long-term clarity is essential.
- Any project where the lasting appearance of the resin surface is a priority.
