Metal powder coating-smooth surface powder coating
Powder coating for metal
Powder coating, also known as powder painting, is a coating technique that does not require solvents and is therefore particularly environmentally friendly. A fine powder is applied to metal surfaces by means of electrostatic charging and cured at high temperatures. The result is an even, durable and resistant protective coating.
Advantages of powder coating metal surfaces
Powder coating offers various advantages for different types of metal:
Corrosion protection
Powder coatings reliably protect metal surfaces against corrosion and the effects of weathering.
Aesthetic flexibility
A wide range of colours and many surface effects offer numerous design options.
High resistance
Powder coatings are resistant to abrasion, chemicals and mechanical influences.
Environmental protection
The process does not use solvents and enables virtually waste-free production. Excess powder can simply be reused, which contributes to sustainability.
Possible applications for powder coating
Building industry
Ideal for façade elements, window frames and balconies that need to be robust and colourfast
Mechanical engineering
For machine parts that withstand heavy mechanical loads
Automotive industry
Use on body parts, wheel rims and functional components
Furniture industry
Furniture parts, especially for outdoor use, benefit from the durable and scratch-resistant surface
Various metals for powder coating
Powder coatings are suitable for metals, including aluminium, stainless steel and steel. Each of these materials requires specific approaches that optimise the properties and end use of the component.
| Metal | Corrosion protection | Mechanical resistance | Main application |
| Aluminium | high | medium | Construction industry, automotive industry, furniture industry |
| Stainless steel | very high | high | Architecture, food industry, mechanical engineering |
| Steel | high | very high | Construction, mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, furniture industry |
| Zinc | medium | high | Mechanical engineering, electronics, automotive engineering |
| Copper | medium | medium | Electronics, interior design, sanitary facilities |
The surface quality of the different types of metal is improved by powder coating, depending on the intended requirement. Be it for increased corrosion resistance, better abrasion resistance or visual refinement.
Powder coating requirements for various metals
Aluminium
Aluminium is light and flexible, but susceptible to a wide range of environmental influences. The powder coating reinforces the surface and protects it from corrosion, scratches and weathering.
Stainless steel
Stainless steel is known for its natural corrosion resistance. However, in particularly challenging environments or for decorative purposes, it is often additionally coated. Powder coating gives stainless steel a high-quality appearance and improves protection against aggressive chemicals and extreme weather conditions.
Steel
Steel is robust, but its susceptibility to rust and corrosion makes a protective coating essential. Powder coating is a cost-effective method of maximising the durability of steel in demanding applications.
