Coatings for a Sustainable Hawaii
We know there are many choices out there to getting your metal project painted. Here are the four best reasons why you want to get them powder coated.
Cleaner
The process is cleaner & saves Hawaii's over burdened landfills from messy liquids and job clean up. Traditional liquid painting is a dirty business. It creates excessive debris from job cleanup.By it’s very nature powder coatings are a cleaner, more efficient that spares local landfills & saves Hawaii from unwanted waste.
Lower
Our Coatings give off negligible amounts of VOCs Volatile Organic Compounds which can affect people & public spaces. Unlike liquid paints and epoxies, powder coatings are more durable and chemically resistant yet contain no solvents; therefore do not emit harmful fumes and gases known as VOCs into the atmosphere.
Quicker
If you've ever painted on metal with liquid paints you know how long it takes to dry especially in humid environments. Unless you’re restoring a priceless object, the process is a fairly straight forward process and very economical. Being solvent free the process allows for a faster turnaround that delivers a durable product.
Compliant
Powder coatings make sense because regulations are getting tighter. Powder colors have something to fit every purpose. Powders can fit many purposes from high hiding to high visibility. From sleek black to the safety of fluorescent, we can satisfy any need as well as being EPA/LEEDs compliant.

Even large projects deserve performance finishes. From racking a wide range of part sizes and quantities to extreme custom fabrication we’ve completed some of the largest commercial jobs in the state.
