Wood Industry Solutions
Integricote's first line of products targeted the wood industry. CaraPro® Wood Sealers not only protect wooden surfaces from water and erosion but also feature a 'self-healer' functionality.

Integricote's CaraPro® line also offers specialized solutions for masonry and concrete, using patented nanotechnology. The sealers are available in both clear and colored formulations and are designed to penetrate deep into the substrate, offering advanced protection. CaraPro® Masonry and Concrete Sealers range includes Single-Coat-Clear/Stain options with dry-to-touch times ranging between 15-20 minutes.
Innovations in Coatings
Integricote's CaraPro® line features innovative solutions such as fluorine-free water-beading finishes and polysiloxane-based systems with a high flashpoint and low VOC. Their sealers and stains utilize an interpenetrating protective network to offer exceptional protection and functionality. The range is designed for both residential and commercial applications, ensuring durable and long-lasting results.
