Energy, Ecology, Economy & Excellence

What do they all have in common? You guessed it: Powder Coating!

  • Energy — Less is required to operate a Powder Coating system
  • Ecology — Think Green and pollution free
  • Economy – Pollution-free Powder Coating systems are economical saving you $$$ in operating costs
  • Excellence – Powder and Ultraviolet (UV) coatings offer quality finishes that speak for themselves

When researching systems that reduce pollutants in the atmosphere, you’ll quickly find that employing systems such as Powder Coating, 100% Solid UV Coating, or Waterborne, all do an excellent job of eliminating or reducing pollution to meet EPA standards. Simultaneously, these applications are able not only to improve the quality of your coating process, but also provide an added benefit – an excellent return on investment.

Powder Coating is practically 100% efficient. All the material that is not applied to the part is collected, recovered, sieved and re-used. And since the material is collected for re-use, all the booth air can be re-circulated into the plant, thereby eliminating the need to exhaust the air, because there are no solvents or harmful gases dissipated from the sprayed powder. The oven air exhausted from the plant is reduced, making operating the system less costly.

Powder Coating offers a number of improved physical characteristics, such as scratch resistance and salt spray endurance, among others.

Powder Coating has been in use in the United States since 1969, when it was introduced by Interrad Corporation — which today is called Modean Industries… yes, we were the first!
