Advantages of Dry Powder Coating

Compared to traditional liquid coatings, powder coating is environmentally friendly. This is because it does not require a flash off period, no solvents are used, and there is less waste generated.
The overspray that is left behind can be recycled easily, minimizing the amount of VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) emitted into the air. This in turn helps with environmental compliance standards and regulations.
Powder coating is very versatile as it can be used on a wide range of metals. It’s highly resistant to scratching, fading and wear so your components will look new for longer.
The application and curing process create a quality finish that is unlike any other paint. It’s also extremely durable, making it resistant to damage caused by moisture, chemicals, impact and extreme weather conditions.
Additionally, it’s easier to keep up with than other painting methods. It doesn’t require specialist cleaners and can be easily washed off skin without the use of harmful solvents. Uncontaminated power overspray can also be reclaimed and reused, reducing waste. It also takes a shorter time to apply, cure and dry than liquid paint. This makes it a great option for projects with a tight turnaround.
Powder coating is a durable finish that resists chipping, scratching and fading. It withstands extreme weather conditions and is perfect for outdoor applications like tractors, trailers, vehicles and doors.
Unlike spray paints, which require extensive safety and cleanup procedures, dry powder coating does not involve any solvents. As a result, worker exposure is minimized and housekeeping problems and clothing contamination are reduced.

Powder coating is also safe to use on unique substrates such as medium density fiberboard, pultrusions and glass. Additionally, lower-temperature cure products have been developed to accommodate heat-sensitive surfaces.
Powder coating doesn't contain the harmful solvents that are found in liquid paint, making it much safer and cleaner to work with. This also reduces emissions that can cause harm to people, animals and plants.
The electrostatic application process creates a durable finish that is resistant to chipping, scratching, fading and wearing. This means that your metal products will look great for years to come.
The powder coating process also makes your finished product easy to maintain long term. It doesn't require any special cleaners or solvents, and can be easily wiped down with a damp cloth or sponge. In most cases, wiping your parts down a few times a year is all that's needed to keep them looking clean and functional. This saves time and money over the long run.
Powder coating can be used as a functional (protective) and decorative finish. It is available in virtually limitless color combinations, and various surface textures.
Unlike liquid paints, powder coats retain their color far longer, and they don’t fade due to moisture, heat or UV rays. Because of this, powder coatings can hold up to extreme conditions and harsh weather.
Powder coating also has a more consistent look than spray paints. Powder coating can be applied thicker, so it produces smooth surfaces with no drips or sags. Additionally, powder coats are resistant to chalking, which is when resins break down in the paint and leave a rough texture akin to the skin of an orange. This helps prevent peeling, scratching and fading. This makes it a better choice for products like playground equipment, gas pumps, fire extinguishers, and more.
