It's time to raise the bar in architectural powder coating.
Welcome to Ideal Coating the new leader in the aluminum
powder coating industry. Ideal Coatings goal is to raise the bar in the powder
coating process by using only the finest products and skilled certified
technicians. Ideal offers two state of the art 900 ft. circumference coating
lines with an impressive 30” x 108” opening.
Powder coatings are solvent-free and comprise various synthetic-resin systems,
pigments, and special additives. They are perfectly suited for high-quality coating
of metallic substrates used in the construction industry. Since the early 1960s,
powder coating technology has developed into an excellent alternative to liquid coatings.
Their economic and ecological advantages in particular represent the future of paint
technology.
The raw materials used in powder coatings are processed in three steps: pre-mixing,
extruding, and grinding, resulting in a fine powder. Depending on the specific application,
the powder is then processed into a certain range of particle sizes. In contrast to liquid
coatings, powder coatings do not contain solvents. Powder coatings are applied with
either a corona (electro static) or a tribo (air static) process, and then liquefied and
chemically cross linked at substrate temperatures of between 320°F and 400°F. The
resulting coating has “thermo setting” qualities (meaning that heat is not able to soften it
as would be the case with “thermo plastics”).
The resulting powder coating finishes can stand up to the most extreme conditions and
are suitable for a wide range of functions and decorative purposes.
Advantage of powder coating
-
Environmentally friendly because they are solvent-free
-
High mechanical properties
-
Application of a single coat can produce a thickness of approximately 2-4 mils
-
Excellent edge protection
-
Optimum results after application single coat
-
Efficient use of material (95%) due to recovery of overspray
-
Savings in material and application costs
