End Uses & Markets
Metal is an ideal candidate for UV-curable powder coatings. We have created UV-powder formulations for both ferrous and nonferrous metals like: cold rolled steel, aluminum, tin plated steel, and brass.
UV-curable powder coating’s low melting temperature and fast finishing process make it an excellent option for pre-assembled metal parts containing heat sensitive materials (gaskets, plastics, and electronics) and metal parts that are large in mass.
There are many different processing steps that are used to prepare the metal for finishing. Some metals require specific pre-treatments. We have worked with various types including: zinc phosphate, iron phosphate, and zirconium. Every finishing system is unique, please contact us to discuss.
With growing environmental regulations many companies have approached us looking for a new or replacement system for their existing solvent-borne coating line. A UV-cured powder coating system offers excellent performance characteristics without the negative environmental impacts.
