Powder Coating is the application of organic powder by electrostatic attraction to metal. Once cured by heat the finish is a smooth, hard skin. All processes are factory applied under controlled, stable conditions. This provides significant benefits over traditional wet painting. 

Powder coating generally produces a coating twice as thick as standard paint.  The real advantage is its flexibility and ability to bend and yield with the material it is applied to. This makes it ideal for industries where the products are subject to a lot of vibration and twisting and toughness and durability are of importance. This finish is also much better than traditional paint where corrosion is an issue. Last but not least powder coating if done properly has a “look” that is highly appealing and almost anything metal can be powder coated.
