What is Powder Coating?
The powder coating process is a superior finishing method, during which objects are coated with electrically charged powder, before being cured until the coating melts to the item.
Is Powder Coating Superior to Traditional Paint?
With the fact it provides long-lasting durability, powder coatings are much more resistant to bumps, knocks, erosion and rust, when compared to traditional liquid paint coatings.
Which Materials Can Be Powder Coated?
Almost all metal types that can withstand temperatures of up to 200 degrees Celsius, and an electrical charge, can be coated in our facility - including steels, alloys and irons.
What is Powder Coating Used For?
Powder coating is designed to protect metal items from potential weathering, rust, and erosion, and is well suited to the agriculture, architecture & chemical industries, amongst others.
Is Powder Coating Environmentally Friendly?
As well as the increased durability that powder coating has in comparison to paint, the method is also much more environmentally friendly, as it does not emit dangerous solvent fumes into the atmosphere. With the recycling centre built into our fully automated paint line, we are also able to significantly reduce our waste production.
