HPC is a high-performance coating that is applied to acoustical melamine foam base. Our exclusive water based HPC formulation improves durability and protects the acoustical foam from dust and dirt, allowing the surface to be cleaned using a damp cloth. The HPC coating is especially appropriate for use high-traffic areas. HPC Premium extends the HPC coating further by offering a line of brilliant colors from which to choose.
Custom HPC colors are available. Popular paint brands may be combined with our exclusive HPC formulation to produce unique designs for any project.
To produce an order for custom HPC colors, please be aware of the following.
Customers with an order for custom HPC colors will receive a sample to approve prior to producing the order.
