Process:

All painted items are powder coated. They are hung up on the conveyor and first travel through the pre-treatment plant where they are cleaned and given a phosphate-based surface treatment which improves the adhesion of the paint (this is all water-based). Then the products travel through the powder-coating booths which house automatic, reciprocating guns as well as manual guns (to reach the tricky corners). An electrostatic charge is applied to the products which make the powder stick to the surface before it is cured. The products then travel through the curing oven for about 10-15 minutes at 200 ⁰C. There is also a small, wet spraying booth and oven, but these are used for special jobs only.
