​​What is Powder Coating?
Why Use Powder Coating? Powder coating is a superior finish for metal products. In fact, powder coated products are everywhere—in your home, office, shopping mall, automobile and SUV, stadium and playground and in countless architectural applications. Regardless of the product or use, you can always count on powder coating to deliver a superior finish. Powder Coating brings the following:

• Efficiency

• Economy

• Energy Savings

• Environmental Compliance

• Excellence of Finish
  
  Efficiency
  With powder coating as the finishing process there are no runs, drips, or sags. Since no drying or flash-off time is required, a powder coating production line will move more efficiently than a standard paint line. More parts are able to be coated with significantly lower reject rates. And, with the use of appropriate application equipment, materials, and recovery methods, a 95% - 98% powder utilization efficiency rate is readily available.
  
  Economy
  In addition to its efficiency, powder coating offers a simplified process that allows for a durable yet beautiful coating. Unlike paint, powder coated parts can be racked closer together to pass more quickly through the production line, allowing for lower per unit costs. Powder coating also offers easier compliance with federal and state regulations, increasing cost savings.
  
  Energy Savings
  Utilizing the strength of powder coating’s efficiency and economy, the exhaust required in powder coating ovens is lower and therefore helps reduce energy consumption. While ovens that cure solvent-based coatings must heat and exhaust huge volumes of air to protect against potentially explosive fumes, the exhaust volume of a powder coating oven is lower and more manageable. So much so that the air is able to be recycled into the plant.
  
  Environmental Compliance
  Powder Coating’s efficiency, economy, and energy savings works for the environment as well, as this process eliminates VOCs – meaning the exhaust air is environmentally safer. Installation, expansion and running of a powder coating operation is significantly simplified, creating the potential to place a powder coating finishing operation in areas where other production systems would not be permitted. The employees also love powder coating’s reduced housekeeping problems and minimum contamination of clothing, since dry powder does not emit the kinds of fumes liquid paint does.
  
  Excellence of Finish
  Above all else, powder coating’s efficiency, economy, energy savings and environmental friendliness produce an excellence and superiority of finish that our customers know and count on. Powder coating offers a wide range of both extreme and decorative performance properties. Color selection is virtually unlimited, and is available in both high and low gloss. Textures can be varied as needed. Significant breakthroughs in powder coating technologies has even led to the development of systems that are designed to meet the diverse practical and aesthetic needs of today.
