Lyndcoat™

The Challenge

​Tire manufacturers​ typically use a range of tailor-made silicone-based formulations for optimized processing conditions in tire curing. Their goal is to produce the highest quality tires safely, cleanly and cost-effectively.

They require release agents that provide ease of demolding and excellent slip to allow for production of perfectly symmetric tires through optimum bladder centering and absence of release-related tire deformation.

Release agents have to promote air evacuation while ensuring good tire optics after molding.

​These products have an essential impact for tire manufacturers in striving for improved productivity and quality in tire curing. As for mold-making products, they need to allow for fast-to-market precision manufacturing of tire molds, with or without vent valves. ​

Why us

For over 30 years, we have developed the ​Lyndcoat™ range of release formulations with and for the tire manufacturing industry. The range includes:

• Lyndcoat™ MR series reactive emulsions for tire mold release, featuring ready-to-use, solvent-free, water-based coatings that offer efficient release performance while allowing for low build-up through reduced consumption and application frequency

• Lyndcoat™ BR series inside paints and bladder coatings, featuring water-based emulsions for easy processing, while achieving efficient bladder centering, excellent air evacuation promotion and secure release, enabling the production of high-quality tires while improving bladder life

• Lyndcoat™ XR bladder coatings, featuring ready-to-use water-based emulsions for new bladder coatings and refreshing of bladders in operation. These products can be used on their own or in combination with inside tire lubricants.
