PUR-Coating is the innovative technique, in which Eurofoam is utilized to make foam objects in the field of "Art and Design". This thus created a decorative video backdrop for the television ad on the 100th birthday of Kinderfreunde Austria.
Furniture, games, decorations, sets, logos, trade fair stands as well as give-aways can all be individually created using PUR-Coating. A special cutting technology enables the foam to be made into the desired shape and then covered with a colourful „coating“. There are no limits to the colour and shapes you can create.
The mixing technology used ensures a colourfastness of 99.9 per cent. The clean, smooth surface is water repellent, UV-resistant and easy to clean. Even the fact that it is generally recognized as safe (the physiological harmlessness) and the Öko-Tex certification (Eco-Tex Standard) distinguishes PUR-Coating.
Until now this technology was predominantly used for mattress covers in medical technology and orthopaedics. However, this Eurofoam process is now also used more and more in design- and art projects. For the 100th birthday, which the Kinderfreunde Austria are celebrating in 2008, Eurofoam has, for example, created a foam video backdrop. In the Children's Museum in Graz a column was also covered in PUR as part of the project "Dialog im Dunkeln" (Dialogue in the Dark).
