To meet the demands for durability, appearance and sustainability in protecting galvanized steel, Axalta has developed Alesta AP QualiSteel powder coating.
When it comes to protecting galvanized steel structures and products, the demands for durability, appearance and sustainability have increased significantly. In response to this trend, Axalta offers Alesta® AP QualiSteel powder coatings in architectural quality.
This coating - which is typically used for coating steel structures, machine components, garden and outdoor furniture, fencing, railing, playground equipment, urban and outdoor lighting and many more - can be applied without a pre degassing step and, depending on the substrate to be coated, it can be cured at as low as 160°C. This enables material and energy savings.
Alesta® AP QualiSteel has hazardous label free formulations and, compared to a traditional two-step process application, it enables an increase in productivity without affecting the appearance of the coated surface.
The powder coatings, which are part of the international "QUALISTEELCOAT" quality label, also offer very good UV stability and mechanical resistance, leading to a longer life cycle of the components.
Alesta® AP QualiSteel is available in popular RAL based colours from stock.
