Customers might have noticed something different about MAC’s products.

 

MAC Automation Concepts, Inc. recently installed a powder coating system. This new method allows MAC to coat its products with a durable environmentally responsible finish.

 

Powder coating is an advanced and cost effective method of applying a protective finish to products. A dry free-flowing powder is first applied electrostatically and then cured under heat creating a tougher finish than liquid paint.

 

Benefits include being an environmentally friendly process the powder coating process emits zero or near zero volatile organic compounds (VOC) unlike solvent based painting. Powder coating produces less hazardous waste when compared to liquid coatings. Recycling overspray achieves nearly 100% usage. Customers will like the thicker coating achieved without running or sagging creating smooth, scratch resistant, texture free surfaces that will last for years.
