Architecture and powder coatings work well together. Powder coating’s uses extend well beyond covering and protecting playground equipment, appliances, car parts, and other items. For architects, powder coating presents a way to protect and beautify many aspects of their work. Here are just a few ways architectural powder coating is employed in the field.
Enjoy Strength and Durability
Powder coating offers incredible strength and durability. This makes it ideal for protecting outside industrial surfaces, but it’s also great for protecting and enhancing the strength and longevity of railings, frames, facades, guards, and other architectural elements. Whether used indoors or outdoors, powder coating lends its strength to already strong surfaces—metal, plastic, wood, and more—protecting them from everything from minor scratches and abrasions to potentially destructive rust, corrosion, and other damage that can weaken them. Construction powder coating offers extra support to any overall structure.
Get More Benefits Compared to Paint
Powder coating is a worthy alternative for painting—in fact, it’s even better. Powder coating doesn’t use volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are bad for the environment, and it can be collected and reused for other projects, reducing waste. Powder coating comes in just as many colors and hues as paint and can be mixed and matched according to the architect’s needs. It even provides a long list of textures and finishes, sparking an architect’s imagination and making their vision a reality.
Save Money Over Time
Powder coating helps you save money in the long run. There’s no need to paint and repaint every year because powder coating lasts 10 years, 15 years, or even longer. While it costs slightly more upfront, powder coating eventually pays for itself due to its low-maintenance nature and the fact that it doesn’t need to be replaced for a very long time.
