Regulatory compliance

Under REACH restriction Annex XVII, entry 74, it is mandatory for safety training to be completed before first use of polyisocyanate products containing free diisocyanates at concentrations of 0.1% or higher.

While our Ultra line products reduce diisocyanate exposure, appropriate workplace conditions and worker awareness of spray-specific hazards remain essential safety requirements.

Key benefits

  • Drop-in solution:

    Easily replaces established formulations without additional admin or approvals

  • Enhanced industrial hygiene:

    Residual monomer content below 0.1%

  • Proven performance:

    Technical equivalence to established formulations

  • Future-proof:

    Developed to address current EU regulations on diisocyanates as well as the EU‘s new Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs) for diisocyanates coming into effect in 2029.
