DUPLEX COATINGS AND POWDER COATINGS AT JOSEPH ASH
MEDWAY
Powder coating and duplex coating services are provided by the
company’s Joseph Ash Medway plant.
Duplex coatings are a synergy of hot dip galvanizing and powder
coating, suitable for all for all types of steel architectural projects.
Used independently, a galvanized coating and a powder coat
provides a good level of protection for steel. However, as steel
begins to age, the galvanized zinc coating erodes, making the
steel more susceptible to weather damage. If, however, the steel
has also been painted or powder coated, the synergistic effect
acts as an extra barrier, which slows down the zinc erosion rate
and provides a far superior level of protection to extend the life
of steel.
The additional benefits of a duplex coating are: durability; ease
of repainting; economical; sustainable; environmentally friendly;
and guaranteed for up to 40 years (dependent on the type of
powder used).
