Low friction coatings tech news
On June 4, 2026, Friction--Free Logistics unveiled "Pallet--Slide," a high--durability low--friction floor coating optimized for automated distribution centers. The coating integrates micronized PTFE into a reinforced epoxy matrix, reducing the rolling resistance for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) by 15%. This efficiency gain allows for extended battery life and increased throughput in high--volume logistics environments, while the coating's wear--resistant properties are designed to withstand 24/7 industrial operations.
