'No compromise' mouldings now from Corinthian; Corinthian Doors links with Carter Holt Harvey to sell ULTRAprime™
Described by Corinthian as a 'no compromise' product, ULTRAprime™ is the only MDF moulding currently available to meet the highest Australian Standard for moisture AND the new Australian E0 (E-zero) formaldehyde emission standard, delivering real peace of mind for builders and property owners.
In an ongoing commitment to bring breakthrough products to the market, Corinthian has linked with respected Australian manufacturer Carter Holt Harvey to offer builders the benefits of the new distinctive green mouldings.
Corinthian is using its Australia-wide sales and marketing strengths to promote ULTRAprime™. The product is already being hailed as revolutionary for its ability to meet the standard for intermittent exposure to moisture while also complying with the Australian E0 Standard and was one of just five finalists in the recent HIA GreenSmart Awards.
Stephen Dunn, Corinthian's Marketing Services Manager, said, "Corinthian has always focused on presenting a catalogue of products that make the builder's life easier. With doors and door systems, we can confidently claim we have the best. When it comes to fix-out products, it's a major advantage to be able to deliver a range of mouldings that also represent genuine peace of mind."
The new moulding's moisture resistance properties are of important benefit to builders working in regions prone to humidity and who can face significant maintenance hassles with unhappy customers if products fail to perform to standard by swelling. ULTRAprime™ is suitable for use even in tropical conditions.
In an independently supervised test, ULTRAprime™ and a commonly used, lower priced moulding were submerged in water for 24 hours. ULTRAprime™ showed no sign of swelling, cracking or bowing - unlike the other competitor moulding.
Pre-primed for a superior installation, ULTRAprime™ is painted a distinctive light green colour.
Corinthian's confidence in ULTRAprime™ has been boosted by its additional qualities that include no "volcano" effect when nailed according to guidelines; guaranteed no buckling, splitting or warping; an ultra-smooth surface for painting - and no grin-through from the pale green primer; and low density easy handling.
ULTRAprime™ meets AS/NZS 1859.2.2004 for moisture resistance and the E0 Australian Standard for (0.5mg/L) formaldehyde emission for MDF. The product is independently tested by the Australian Wood Panels Association. The MDF used meets criteria for recycled and rapidly renewable resources for building products as specified by the Green Building Council in the U.S.
