Benefits of Powder Coating

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Economy

  • Up to 99 percent of powder overspray can be captured and recycled
  • One-coat coverage without runs or sags
  • Easy cleanup
  • No solvents to mix or recover
  • No viscosity balance to maintain
  • No flash-off time requirements
  • No need to provide heat booth make-up when air is returned to work area
  • Reject rate can be kept low because damaged coating can be blown off and recoated before heat cure

Excellence of Finish

  • Readily available resins can provide one or a combination of desirable characteristics including: durability, resilience, high gloss, electrical insulation, toughness; and resistance to wear, corrosion, impact, chemical action, and weather
  • Powder manufacturers now offer a complete range of colors plus excellent color matching

Ease of Application

  • Consistent finish characteristics and electrostatic "wrap-around" reduce the need for highly skilled operators
  • Process is easily automated and can include automatic gun movers and/or contouring mechanisms
  • Production time can often be reduced, as one coat will do the job
