Material

Radiant produces products consisting of Polymer Concrete and Epoxy resin for both indoor and outdoor electrical purposes.

Radiant has developed its own unique Resin formulation called RE - RESIN after more than 15 years of research and development.

This Formulation's on-site performance and product acceptance speak for themselves.

Keys advantages of RE - RESIN
  • It is UV resistant, making it suitable for use outside.
  • Due to the moldability and high strength of metal parts, design flexibility is possible.
  • Mechanical and electrical properties are excellent.
  • Impact, shock, and vibration resistance are all excellent.
  • Birds will not eat it.
  • Freeze-thaw characteristics are excellent.
  • Moisture absorption is kept to a minimum.
  • Durability that minimises damage due to shipment, storage, and installation.
  • Unlike Ceramic, cracks do not propagate during impact.

RE - RESIN HAS BEEN THROUGH MANY TEST PROCESSES IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE WORLD IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE GLOBAL ACCEPTANCE AND PRESENCE.
