ILEXAL waterbased coatings are reduced-emission by the largely substitution of organic solvents by water. That's makes water coatings at the same time physiological harmless and improves the work hygiene at the paintshop.
From the economical perspective you can save the expenses of thinner. If a wide substitution of conventional coatings is achievable, extensive fire protection installation as well as high insurance rates might be avoidable.
At the end the quality is most important - at the application process and of the final result. Water based coatings are often already on the same level as conventional coatings.
