CINCINNATI, OH (May 1, 2014) – Michelman has introduced Nomar® 73, a new coating that is applied to paper and corrugated to protect packaged goods from abrasions that can occur while the package is in transit. Formulated with advanced polymer technology, the versatile new coating is an effective solution for a wide range of packaged goods including appliances, furniture, metal and plastic auto parts, ceramic bathroom components, windows, doors, and many other applications where abrasion damage is a concern.
