Ameraguard Sprayed Bedliners Launches Eco-Friendly Initiative New Company-wide Program to Raise Awareness of Serving Communities Responsibly in North America

Amerguard's new company-wide program raises awareness about green issues and stimulates change within the truck bedliner community.

San Antonio, TX. (PRWEB) June 22, 2007 -- As part of the Ameraguard Sprayed Bedliners "green" initiative, the San Antonio-based company has launched a new company-wide program to raise awareness about green issues and to stimulate change within the community that its dealers are environmentally-responsible and are committed to providing the best environmentally-friendly product in the industry. The program is also being launched concurrently by its Canadian-based dealer group, Armaguard Coatings Canada of Abbotsford, BC.

Since 1991, Ameraguard has taken an environmentally-friendly stance with its spray-on coating applications, from the typical truck bed customer to the light industrial use. The cured-spray-on Ameraguard product is earth friendly, eco safe, non-toxic, non-hazardous as well as biodegradable. It is also solvent free and is a natural safe and green alternative to other spray-on applications containing harmful materials.

While Ameraguard's unique hybrid chemical formulation provides the most desirable bedliner coating characteristics of toughness, strength, flexibility and abrasion-resistant, it will not produce environmental hazards like VOCs or CFCs that harm the ozone layer during the spraying process. It is also OSHA-approved as well as a non-flammable and non-combustible solution.

As a result, Ameraguard/Armaguard has earned an industry reputation for providing "green" technology that offers pickup truck enthusiasts, professionals and fleet owners the ultimate in protection without harmful effects to the environment.

So, exactly what are VOCs or the more technical term -- Volatile Organic Chemicals? VOCs are emitted as gases from certain solids or liquids, some of which may have short and/or long-term adverse health effects. VOCs are commonly found in household products. CFCs or Chlorofluorocarbons are dangerous substances like ammonia for purposes of refrigeration and spray can propellants that are harmful to the environment.

Standard operating procedure for Ameraguard technicians is their personal protection as well as those around them. Common practices for all applicators in any spray-on truck bed or light industrial application include:
*Conducting truck bed spray applications inside a professional spray booth
*Maintaining a well-ventilated air velocity within the booth
*Wearing appropriate gear when prepping, masking and sanding the truck bed
*Utilizing a full-face fresh-air breathing system mask when spraying

The Ameraguard/Armaguard group has a network of dealer locations throughout North America that specialize in the high-quality application of the company's exclusively formulated "eco-friendly" bedliner coating that's tough enough to carry the industry's only lifetime warranty in North America.

To date, nearly 500,000 trucks have benefited from the durable Ameraguard/Armaguard application, which has been designed to withstand even the most extreme conditions and heavy-duty use. An Amerguard/Armaguard spray-on coatings form a permanent bond to the truck's bed, creating a watertight seal that prevents rust, corrosion and abrasion commonly seen when plastic drop-in bedliners are used.
