Powder Coated<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Powder coating is a dry coating process used as a metal finish mostly on industrial equipment. The coating is applied as dry powder through an electrostatic process, then cured with heat. It is well known for providing high-quality finishes in terms of both functionality and overall look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Active Technology Paint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A synthetic coating that contains chemical properties to prevent bacteria from infecting and reproducing on the surface. This is applied to our products because it reduces the risk of cross-contamination and averts the spread of diseases such as MRSA. It is effective against viruses, fungi and organic air pollutants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

ESD<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Electrostatic discharge. This occurs when two surfaces come into contact and create friction with each other. One surface becomes positively charged and the other becomes negatively charged which causes an imbalance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Static Dissipative<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Static-dissipative materials allow electric charges to flow more slowly through the material for greater control. These materials are typically used to prevent discharge to and from human contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
