Powder coating is a type of dry finishing process, where a free-flowing, dry powder is used instead of traditional liquid paint. This powder is generally applied using an electrostatic process and then hardened either through heat or ultraviolet light. It can be made from different types of polymers, either thermoset or thermoplastic. This technique is favoured for its ability to create a finish that is more robust than standard paint. It’s primarily utilised for metal objects across various industries, including automotive, industrial, and commercial applications.

Powder coating offers several advantages, including enhanced resistance to corrosion, chipping, abrasion, and fading, especially useful for metals exposed to the elements. It’s also more eco-friendly compared to traditional paints and solvents in terms of application. Additionally, powder coating is cost-effective, as its longevity can lead to long-term savings.

Several types of powder coatings are available in the market, each with specific characteristics. Epoxy powder coatings are known for their exceptional durability and chemical resistance, making them suitable for exterior uses. Polyester powder coatings are favoured for their high-gloss finish and are mainly used indoors for aesthetic purposes. Fluoropolymer powder coatings are highly durable and ideal for situations requiring strong corrosion resistance. Lastly, UV curable powder coatings, which cure under UV light rather than heat, are preferred for applications sensitive to heat.
