DuPont and Tambour - the leading paint company in Israel, launch a new paint and deck oil product line branded with DuPont™ Teflon®. As a result of the partnership, Teflon® surface protector has been incorporated into Tambour’s interior wall paint and wooden deck oil, namely Supercryl Clean and Varnit Deck Oil.
Teflon® surface protector, initialy applied mostly in the kitchenware, machinery & chemical industry, is now broadly used in the apparel, textile & household products and coatings.
Teflon® surface protector combines unique chemical and physical features and creates non-stick surfaces resistant to scratch, more durable and easy to clean. Before being introduced on the market, all Teflon® branded coatings were tested at the Haskell Laboratory to ensure the highest quality standards and safety for end-users.
“The cooperation between Tambour and DuPont resulted in the integration of Teflon® surface protector in our products”, says Michael Dayan – Tambour’s CEO. “Thanks to that we, as the only company in Israel, will offer coatings based on the worldwide recognized technology. This gives us a competitive advantage as well as serving our core values of leadership, professionalism and innovation.”
