Vizium, the largest science centre in Latvia, opened its doors in Ventspils on 20 June 2022. The centre features more than 80 interactive exhibits, science shows, laboratories, classrooms, and technical and creative workshops that introduce visitors to physics, chemistry, and other natural sciences. The centre also offers conference facilities for various events.
Since its opening, more than 80,000 people have visited the centre, which means an average of 600-800 visitors per day. The steelwork that extends from the Vizium Centre’s 2nd floor terrace to roof level has been painted with Tikkurila’s Temacoat GPL-S Primer and Temadur 90 metallic paint in a specially created shade to match the overall façade of the building.
Temacoat GPL-S Primer is a two-component, thick-coat epoxy primer. It has excellent adhesion to a variety of surfaces. Temacoat GPL-S Primer is used as a primer or intermediate coating in painting systems subject to abrasion and chemical stress. Excellent adhesion to steel, galvanised, and aluminium surfaces makes the product a versatile primer for a variety of surfaces. The primer is tintable in a variety of shades to help achieve the best possible coating coverage.
Steelwork has been painted with Tikkurila Temadur 90, a two-component fully gloss polyurethane paint that provides excellent gloss and tint stability. Temadur 90 produces a durable, easy-to-clean, surface that retains gloss and tint and does not chalk. The paint has an almost unlimited range of shades as well as metallic tones. The paint has excellent resistance to weathering and abrasion, making it ideal for these types of high-traffic public areas.
