The story of TKR products began in the 1980s, when Toivo Kaarlo Ruti wanted to develop a healthier coating option for the internal coating of various types of pipes. The development of TKR products and methods has continued together with partners and is still ongoing.
By choosing TKR products, you ensure employees’ occupational safety now and in the future. TKR products can also be used by installers who have developed an epoxy allergy.
Occupational diseases make everyday work more difficult for many people every year and cause society additional costs of millions of euros. With us, it’s easier to breathe.
In 40 years, the number of occupational diseases caused by TKR products is exactly ZERO.
Repairs carried out using TKR methods last throughout the building’s entire service life. Key properties of TKR include excellent adhesion and elasticity, which enable a successful repair.
On-site TKR training and TKR installation support ensure the repair is done right. The technical service life of TKR products is up to 50 years, which often covers the full technical service life of the building being renovated.
TKR coating methods help make the green transition a reality also in sealing and coating work. The main raw material of the TKR coating comes from a renewable bio-based source that is perennial and yields multiple harvests each year.
TKR installation methods have been in use for 40 years without causing a single occupational disease. The methods are odourless and dust-free, and the coating already meets M1 emission-class requirements during installation.
Experience shows that TKR methods are long-lasting and cost-effective throughout the structure’s life cycle as well. The best form of circular economy is extending the service life of existing structures with a bio-based coating.
TKR products and methods are cost-effective and easy to install. TKR installation methods have been developed together with professionals. TKR training and the TKR installation support service help you learn the best possible installation practices and take into account how site conditions affect the work.
Because TKR products are odourless and healthier to use, work can continue simultaneously in the building and site logistics become easier. Using different product colours helps verify installation quality. TKR products are also affordable: the TKR materials for a 50 mm-wide airtight sealing joint cost under €2 per linear metre (excl. VAT).
Through continuous training and our installation support service, we ensure that studies and plans are implemented correctly on site. Our goal is for indoor air repairs to succeed the first time and for the completed repair to last throughout the building’s entire service life.
Based on experience, we know that TKR methods are long-lasting solutions when installed correctly. On-site TKR training and installation support are free of charge, and the cost of site management services is determined on a project-by-project basis.
TKR products are manufactured in Finland at our factory in Porvoo. We continuously develop our operations together with our partners. Our latest additions to the market include Antibacterial Coating and TKR Putty.
