Proven performance, all season long.

Cardolite provides all-season solutions for industrial and transportation coatings, delivering reliable performance and outstanding weathering resistance on varied and/or unprepared substrates.

CNSL Benefits

Fast cure even at low temperature


Cardolite leverages CNSL technology to provide fast cure at ambient and low temperatures, allowing a longer coating season and faster return to service.

Adhesion and wetting


With over 40 years of experience protecting various substrates, regardless of preparation, Cardolite’s CNSL-based technology provides the versatility needed to confidently protect property.

Weather resistant


Cardolite’s low-viscosity, light-color resins are ideal for topcoats across all hues and shades, offering very good color retention and gloss stability for lasting visual appeal.

Corrosion protection


Cardolite’s CNSL-based curing agents deliver outstanding corrosion protection in both atmospheric and immersed conditions. Their natural water resistance and strong surface adhesion help coatings last longer.

Flexibility and impact resistance


The long aliphatic side chain of cardanol imparts exceptional flexibility and impact resistance—reducing the risk of cracking, chipping, or delamination of coatings in demanding environments.

Water resistance


The inherent hydrophobicity of CNSL-based products enables excellent adhesion to wet and submerged surfaces while delivering outstanding water resistance after application.
