Outdoor electrical enclosures in South Africa face harsh UV, heavy summer storms, dust and coastal salt air. The finish is the first line of defence, and a poor one leads to rust, failed seals and costly replacements.
Powder coating versus wet paint
Powder coating applies a dry powder electrostatically and then cures it in an oven. The result is a thicker, harder and more even finish than wet paint, with no runs or drips and far better resistance to chipping and fading.
Preparation makes the difference
A coating is only as good as the surface beneath it. Our multi-stage pre-treatment line degreases, descales and applies a zinc phosphate conversion coat before sealing, so the powder bonds properly and corrosion cannot creep under the finish.
What you gain
- Long-lasting protection against corrosion, UV and impact
- A consistent colour across every part of an assembly
- Lower maintenance over the life of the equipment
- A finish that is solvent-free and better for the environment
