Process

Our coating process

Five steps, always in the same order. This is what happens to your part and what we need from you to start.

From inspection to final check

  1. Worker inspecting a metal part before treatment
    01

    Step 01

    Inspection

    We check the parts and define the best solution.

    We inspect every part first. We look at the material, the state of the surface and dimensions. Then we agree the method, color, finish and deadline with you. If something cannot be done the way you imagined, we say so right away, before the job starts.


  2. Cleaned metal surface

    Step 02

    Cleaning

    Degreasing and cleaning the part before coating.

    The metal is degreased and cleaned of oil, grease and the dirt picked up during manufacture and storage. A clean surface is what makes the coating bond and keeps it from flaking after a few years. We never skip this step, even when a part looks clean.


  3. Powder being applied to a metal part

    Step 03

    Coating

    Powder coating with precise application.

    Powder goes on with an electrostatic gun. We work so that the layer is even, on edges and in corners alike. The part is coated in the agreed RAL color and chosen finish, and we keep an eye on layer thickness while we work.


  4. Yellow parts on the line before the oven

    Step 04

    Curing

    Controlled oven curing for maximum durability.

    The coated part goes into an oven where the powder melts and hardens into a solid layer. Temperature and time depend on the thickness of the metal and the type of paint. If it is baked too briefly or too gently, the layer stays soft, so we watch this part of the job closely.


  5. Final inspection of a coated part
    05

    Step 05

    Quality check

    Final inspection to ensure a flawless finish.

    After cooling we check each part: color, gloss, evenness of the layer and edges. We compare it with what was agreed, and with your sample if you gave us one. Anything that is not right gets fixed before delivery. We pack finished parts so they arrive without scratches.

What we need from you

A short inquiry is enough. The more you send, the faster we can quote.

  • Drawing or photo

    A drawing, or a clear photo of the part with dimensions.

  • Deadline

    When you need the parts back.

Parts can be up to 3 m long for powder coating.
