Axalta has introduced U-POL Tectium, a premium lineup of body fillers and finishing products designed to redefine productivity and surface quality in modern collision repair. This innovative range includes Tectium Elite Filler, Tectium Filler, Tectium Glaze, and MicroFill, each engineered to meet the demands of high-volume body shops.
What sets Tectium apart is its speed and performance. With curing and sanding times up to twice as fast as leading competitors, technicians can prime in as little as 20 minutes, accelerating cycle times and enabling more repairs per day. For collision centers focused on throughput, this is a game-changer.
Developed with advanced technology, Tectium products deliver a smooth, creamy application, exceptional adhesion across all substrates—including galvanized steel—and a tack-free finish that reduces primer usage and minimizes rework. The self-leveling glaze addresses imperfections such as pinholes and scratches, while MicroFill enhances adhesion and cuts primer consumption by up to 30%. Fully compatible with Axalta coatings, the Tectium system integrates seamlessly into existing workflows for consistent, high-quality results.
“Innovation and performance drive everything we do,” said Jeremy VanAlstyne, Vice President of Sales for Axalta Refinish North America. “Tectium was developed by listening to body shops and understanding their need for speed without sacrificing quality. This range sets a new benchmark for efficiency and excellence, empowering technicians to deliver flawless finishes faster.”
With U-POL Tectium, Axalta continues to push the boundaries of collision repair technology—helping shops achieve superior results while maximizing productivity.
