What is Powder Coating?

Powder coating is a form of paint coating, unlike traditional paint coatings that are applied as a wet coating, powder coatings are applied as free flowing dry powder paint.

How powder coatings are applied:

Before application of the powder coat is applied, the powder paint is electrostatically charged. Once the powder coating has been applied to an object, that object is then baked in a specially designed oven that melts the powder coating and forms an incessant layer.

What is powder coatings used for?

Powder coating is predominantly used for coating the metal surfaces of object that are positioned outside and subject to the environmental elements. Powder coatings are ideal for surfaces that require a hard finish such as white ware, aluminium, automobile and bicycle parts.

Benefits of powder coatings:

Powder coatings offer a resilient alternative to conventional liquid paints by generating thicker protective layer.

Unlike conventional liquid paints, powder coatings produce less hazardous waste than conventional liquid coatings as they do not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in liquid suspension.
