SAY IT WITH COIL
What lies ahead for coil coating ? We analyse the latest market analysis , technology updates and new initiatives in global coil-coating markets .
Coil coating is a continuous or automated process of coating coils of metal with a polyester resin that includes cleaning , pre-treating and coating flat coils of steel or aluminium sheet . The process includes cleaning ; exchange treatment ; drying ; primer coating ; top coating and foil lamination . The most common formulations are polyester , polyflourocarbons , alkyds , acrylics and plastisol . The process is used in construction , automotive , industrial and domestic appliances , as well as other industries .
“ Factors such as rapid industrialisation ; the growing construction industry and burgeoning automotive industry in countries such as China ; India ; Malaysia ; Indonesia ; Vietnam ; Japan and South Korea will facilitate the coatings ’ raw material market growth in APAC . Around 51 % of the market growth will originate from the APAC ( Asia Pacific ) region up to 2025 ,” explained analyst , Technavio .
Based on material type , the polyester
Coil coating is a continuous or automated process of coating coils of metal with a polyester resin that includes cleaning , pre-treating and coating flat coils of steel or aluminium sheet
segment is anticipated to dominate the global coil-coatings market in forthcoming years . Polyester coil paint is increasingly being used in both the exteriors and interiors of buildings as it can withstand harsh weather conditions , has good formability and excellent chemical resistance properties . It can also provide strong flow characteristics to multiple temperatures , thereby finding applications in pre-engineered buildings .
The coil-coating process , which is used to produce pre-painted metal , is continuously evolving to produce better products at a higher quality , faster and with lower environmental impact .
Coil coating in focus
Coil coating is an automated and continuous industrial process that coats metal coils effectively . The coatings work on a simple , but successful , concept of cleaning , pretreating and coating flat coil , steel sheet or aluminium sheet .
According to analyst Future Market Insights , the steel segment is projected to hold the lion ’ s share of the global coil-coatings market ( by application ). The coil paint process is considered to be an environmentally responsible way to apply paint to steel .
