Introduction
Customers today demand higher quality and durability from the products they buy. Not only do they expect these products to perform well but they want the finish to look good and resist corrosion for a much longer period of time. The finishing processes offered by us are designed to do just that. One of those finishing processes is powder coating.
Powder coating is different from painting. These area blend of resins, curing agent and pigments which are melt-mixed and pulverized into finely divided particles. There are no liquids or solvents. Therefore, it is the ultimate coating for environmental friendliness. It is applied to metal products by electrostatic spray, the coated item is then heated and the powder melts into smooth, continuous film.
Powder Coatings are gaining in popularity because of their high quality, the apparent ease of application and the environmental friendliness of the technology. It has been a commercial reality now for close to thirty years.
Powder coatings are used for the same key reasons as any surface finishing process:
- To protect the substrate they have been applied to
- To enhance the appearance of the item they have been applied to.
- The key benefits of powder coatings are often summarized by the five E's of powder coating.
These benefits have enabled powder coatings to take a significant share of the industrial finishing market
