Description

Powder coatings can be applied in a wide range of colours, finishes, textures, and thicknesses that are not readily achievable through conventional liquid coating methods. Capable of being manufactured in virtually any colour, powder coating materials can be formulated for both protective and decorative applications. The final finish achieved by the powder material ranges from matte to glossy, and clear to glittered or metallic. Various textures are also available for decorative purposes or hiding surface imperfections.

The powder coating process allows for a wider range of coating thicknesses. Compared to the liquid coating process, powder coating can more readily produce thicker, even coatings, especially when using the fluidized bed coating method. Using the ESD method, it is also possible to achieve thin, even coatings; albeit, not as thin as the coatings achieved via the liquid coating process.
