Powder coating represents a dry finishing technique that was introduced in North America some 40 years ago. It is a surfacing technique that has become extremely popular over the years through its time of inception due to its long lasting, highly durable and decorative properties. It is also known for its wide ranging applications in nearly all sorts of industries in a wide variety of applications. It is rust free, environment friendly, scratch resistant and comes in virtually any sort of finish or color.
 
Powder coating represents nearly 15% of the total global finishing market where it is used on a wide array of products. Used as a decorative as well as a protective finish, powder coating is actually a dry finishing process even though it may come across as pained-on. 
 
For achieving the painted look, electrostatically charged pulverized pigment particles and resins are sprayed on electrically grounded surfaces of the target item. The electrically grounded nature of the object’s surface attracts the dry charged particles of the powder. These objects are then cured in a specialized oven where the dry particles melt and fuse with the object’s surface. 
 
 
The process of powder coating is not only pollution free, but also results in very little waste due to easy recovery of the dry overspray. Also, industries save their money that may be otherwise required for pollution-control equipment, making powder coating even more economical. 
 
Common applications of powder coating come across in products such as buildings, computer cases, engine parts, exercise equipment, furniture items, golf clubs, stadium chairs, structural enforcements, store racks, tools and countless other products which need a finish that does not easily fade and is resistant to chipping, amongst other features. 
 
Powder coating was earlier used only for finishing metal surfaces but advancements in the technology with time allowed it to be cured at lower temperatures, making it suitable for plastic, wood and ceramics. 
 
Durability of Powder Coating
 
Powder coating is highly durable and long-lasting. From everyday household items to the toughest pieces of machinery, thousands of products benefit from the high quality and highly durable nature of powder coating. Powder coatings are more durable than liquid paints, while still being attractive. 
 
The quality of powder coating does not diminish due to factors such as chemicals, moisture, impact, extreme weather conditions and ultraviolet light. In addition to all this, powder coating is also known to reduce the risks of abrasion, scratches, corrosion, fading, chipping and other wear issues.
