What is Powder Coating?
Powder coating is the electrostatic application of dry powder to metal surfaces which are then treated in an oven to 200oC to ensure a hardened, long lasting painted surface area. Not just does this allow clients to delight in the aesthetics of colour on a metal surface, the coating provides a tough finish which is harder and more resilient than conventional paint.
It uses a substantial range of colours and finishes to select from. You might wish to choose between a matt, gloss, satin or textured finish. We utilize the Dulux and Interpon (Akzo Nobel) range of powder. Please contact to see our series of colours & finishes.
It can be used on any object or item that holds and electrostatic charge and can endure the heat of the oven. The success of the process counts on the preparation work, all surface areas need to be clear of any impurities in order to create the best possible result.
The prep work might include sanding, cleaning or abrasive blasting. We are more than pleased to assist you with any questions or queries you might have, so do not hesitate to get in touch with us to find out more!

Why Powder Coat?
The efficiency qualities of powder finish go beyond the qualities achieved from standard solvent based coatings. A powder coated surface area is a long lasting, premium finish resistant to breaking, peeling, fading and scratching, leaving the surface area abrasion, corrosion and chemically resistant. Powder finish is readily available in a vast array of surfaces, colours and results, such as ripple, hammerstone, texture, leather, pearl and much more.

What Can Be Powder Coated?
Powder coating is a process where a dry powder including a solvent free dry mixture of plastic resins, pigment, and fillers are sprayed onto the surface of a product. The powder is electrostatically charged so that it holds to the item. The product is then put in an oven and heated, causing a chemical reaction that melts the powder and fuses it onto the product, producing a smooth and extremely long lasting finish. Powder finishing can be applied to any object that holds an electrostatic charge and can hold up against high temperatures.
