From Waste to Race: IGL Coatings Launches Arcane, The Revolutionary Ceramic Coating That Will Change the Automotive Detailing Industry
29 October 2024
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia — In a bold leap forward for the automotive industry, IGL Coatings has officially launched Arcane, the world’s first single-layer ceramic coating introducing Graphene Infinite. This eco-conscious ceramic coating is set to redefine industry standards in performance, sustainability, and innovation.
With a remarkable four-year durability, Arcane goes beyond traditional ceramic coatings by leveraging the power of Graphene Infinite. What makes this truly revolutionary is that the material, derived from petroleum waste, requires 70% less energy in its production, transforming an environmental challenge into a technological triumph.
“Arcane isn’t just another ceramic coating—it’s a symbol of what’s possible when innovation meets sustainability,” said Keong Chun Chieh, Founder and CEO of IGL Coatings. “Our mission has always been to create products that not only deliver high performance but do so with minimal environmental impact. Arcane is truly the embodiment of that vision.”
IGL Leading the Green Revolution in Automotive Coatings
Arcane isn’t just a high-performance product; it’s a blueprint for the future of coatings. With its low VOC (volatile organic compounds) formulation and high-solids content, Arcane demonstrates that durability and sustainability can coexist. This product is a key milestone in IGL Coatings’ commitment to reshaping the detailing industry by introducing more environmentally responsible solutions.
The introduction of Graphene Infinite represents a pivotal innovation, not just for IGL Coatings but for the entire industry. By turning petroleum waste into a high-tech ingredient, Arcane contributes to the global push for a circular economy. “We’re not just talking about greener practices,” Keong added, “We’re putting waste to work, cutting energy usage, and delivering a product that’s kinder to the planet while protecting vehicles like never before.”
Arcane, Hydrocoat and Strip, all of IGL Coating’s new products make their international debut at SEMA Las Vegas 2024, bringing with it the promise of a new era—one where automotive coatings offer superior protection while significantly reducing their environmental footprint.
Driving Industry-Wide Change: From Waste to Race
With its sustainable formulation and cutting-edge technology, Arcane signals a shift toward greener solutions that benefit both the industry and consumers. Arcane’s single-layer durability reduces the frequency of reapplications, which translates to less product use and a reduced carbon footprint over time—without sacrificing quality or protection.
Graphene Infinite is set to disrupt the traditional methods of ceramic coating production, paving the way for other manufacturers to adopt similar sustainable materials. “Arcane is more than a product; it’s geared towards a greener, more sustainable future for the entire automotive coatings industry,” shares Fiona Chin, Director of Marketing at IGL Coatings.
Introducing to the World at SEMA Show 2024 and MotoGP
IGL Coatings will debut Arcane at the world-renowned SEMA Show in Las Vegas, alongside the launch of Strip, a powerful surface preparation solution, and Hydrocoat, a hydrophobic coating offering instant water repellency.
These three products showcase IGL Coatings’ relentless innovation in delivering high-performance, eco-friendly solutions for the detailing world. Following this, Arcane will be showcased as a flagship material innovation at the Malaysian MotoGP, demonstrating that high-speed performance and sustainability can go hand in hand.
The Future of Automotive Coatings
The introduction of Graphene Infinite opens doors for its integration into other IGL Coatings products, with the potential to revolutionize the entire portfolio. While IGL Coatings remains cautious about revealing future plans, insiders suggest that this is just the beginning of a larger movement toward fully sustainable, high-performance coatings.
“The future of automotive detailing is green, and it’s here,” Keong said with a smile. “Arcane is just the first step in a new direction for the industry, and we’re excited to see where it takes us.”
