PATASKALA, Ohio February 29, 2016 – Ridge Corporation announces that extensive testing has proven that the weak link in refrigerated liner bonding to polyurethane foam has been eliminated.  In-house testing as well as external tests corroborate that SURLOK supplies a superior bond surface when compared to scrim cloth.

SURLOK can provide a structurally bondable surface for a variety of applications and is compatible with a wide range of foams and adhesives. The addition of SURLOK to Ridge’s PolarX reefer wall, and other advanced composites, lowers weight, reduces cost, and greatly improves the tensile strength of refrigerated wall liners to PU foam and adhesives.

This paves the way for upgraded foam specifications with greater surface adhesion and less delamination between the liner and foam. The need for scrim cloth has been eliminated. SURLOK can provide a structurally bondable surface for a variety of applications using a variety of foams. Contact Ridge Corporation for a product data sheet.
