Powder coating

Ultimate protection with an environmentally friendly process

With powder coating, we coat your steel with environmentally friendly paint powder. This makes your steel resistant to wear and tear and prevents corrosion and erosion. Our innovative powder coating line is specially designed to conserve large quantities of steel constructions in a short period of time. With a minimum of handling and a maximum of quality.

Step 1/5 - How it works

Blasting

The steel constructions are hung on a hanging rail and automatically blasted clean (according to the SA2.5 standard) to remove any rust or other contamination. The remaining steel grit is then removed with compressed air.

Step 2/5 - How it works

Manual powder coating

In the hand powder cabin, difficult-to-reach corners are coated by hand by our employees and a few powder guns.

Step 3/5 - How it works

Automatic powder coating

The steel is given a corrosion-resistant powder coating by means of 24 fully automatic powder guns. A powder recovery system prevents powder waste and allows us to reuse surplus powder.

Step 4/5 - How it works

Curing

The structure is cured in a 90-metre long conveyor oven. In the second line, the construction goes into a closed oven.

Step 5/5 - How it works

Check

Before the steel leaves the conveyor belt and is loaded onto the trailer, it is thoroughly checked for layer thickness and quality. Any overlaps are corrected by hand.
