 States revolutionized the hardwood plywood industry in 1992 with the introduction of
NOVA ultraviolet cured prefinished panels. Today prefinished panels are part of all major supplier’s offering, but NOVA still leads all others in quality of finish and the breadth of finishes available.
NOVA panels offer many advantages for small shops and large manufacturers alike. In addition to reducing manufacturing time and increasing throughput, the standard NOVA finish is durable and extremely chemically resistant. Best of all, UV flat line finishing is the most cost effective system in use today. NOVA panels
typically lower finishing costs significantly.
States Industries offers four basic categories of NOVA finishes, Clear, Translucent, Opaque and Printed. All are offered in Satin, Medium and High Gloss as well as custom gloss matching. Translucent finishes are matched to customer provided samples, or created to customer specifications. Virtually all panel products made by States Industries are
available with NOVA finishes applied to one or both sides.
UV curing technology allows them to apply one sealer and two, 100% solid epoxy acrylate topcoats. These coatings contain no formaldehyde, and emit no volatile organic compounds in manufacture or use. NOVA finishes are extremely
durable, showing no effects from solvents or household chemicals. NOVA meets the Woodwork Institute of California’s laboratory grade standard for vertical surfaces. Overspray from other finish operations can be wiped from NOVA
surfaces with acetone.
