Benefits  
 

Production Advantages

The use of prepainted materials leads to-

  • Finished product achieved in only two stages - processing and assembly.
  • Reduced transport and handling costs.
  • Minimal pollution as coil coaters' plants are designed to dispose of all waste products.
  • Improved productivity.
  • Reduced wastage of raw material.
  • Compliance with most demanding conditions of pollution control.

Technical Advantages

The applied organic film provides-

  • Optimum balance of properties.
  • Guaranteed uniform surface finish.
  • Enhanced corrosion resistance of substrate.
  • Multipurpose material.
  • A durable surface which minimises handling damage.
  • A material which can precisely and consistently meet design specifications in terms of coating thickness, appearance and overall performance.

Economic Advantages

Resulting from the elimination of the post paint operation-

  • Large storage areas are no longer needed to house semi-finished products.
  • Energy savings gained.
  • Workforce redistributed to more productive work.
  • Expenditure on effluent disposal eliminated.
  • No need for hazardous or inflammable storage.
  • See brochure "Coil Coating-Saving you Money" from ECCA.

Environmental Advantages

The fabricator's workshop becomes a much healthier environment-

  • Effluent disposal made easier due to the absence of paint residues, overspray and toxic waste chemicals.
  • Handling of dangerous chemical products eliminated.
  • Elimination of the presence of solvents in workshop and the environment.
  • End-users can concentrate on what they know best-design and production of their products - with no post painting problems.
  • See brochure "How to Paint Ecologically" from ECCA.
