Price and minimum order
We do not publish a rate for SC-501 because it moves with the shade, the pack size and the annual volume, and a number that ignores those three is a number you would have to renegotiate. Send the tablet, the target and the quantity and you get a firm quote the same working day.
A trial quantity goes out before any commercial order, with the process parameters this grade was developed on, so you can run it on your own pan before anyone commits to anything.
What to send us
- The active and the strength
- A retained tablet, if you are matching a shade
- Coater size and batch charge
- Target release profile or stability zone
- Approximate annual quantity
Product description
Colour or white seal coat for cores that need covering as well as sealing, so the finishing film coat can be applied at a lower build-up.
Covers as well as seals, so the finishing film coat can be applied at a lower build-up. It earns its place on dark or mottled cores that would otherwise need a heavy white film to hide.
