Some Stiles door types, along with frames and window systems are available in factory powder coat
finishes, offering superior durability and gloss retention, along with minimal environmental impact.
Powder Coating Advantages
- Exceptional Durability
Powder coating is extremely durable and offers superior adhesion and gloss retention over many
traditional "wet" finishes.
- Minimal VOCs
Because it's a "dry" process that uses no liquid solvents, powder coating releases virtually no
harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere.
- HAPs Free
The powder coating process produces no Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs); chemicals that can
harm human health and the environment.
- Recoverable Over Spray
Unlike the over spray from liquid paints, the powders used in the powder coating process can be
recovered and reused for maximum efficiency with the minimum amount of material.
- Minimal Hazardous Waste
In contrast to solvent-based paints, powder coating does not produce residual sludge or leftover
liquid thinners that must be disposed of as hazardous waste.
- Long Life Cycle
Highly resistant to abrasion, cracking, chipping, chemicals and ultraviolet degradation, powder coat
finishes typically last the life of a product.
