Plascoat has developed a range of polyethylene and polypropylene powder coatings designed to satisfy the needs of the wirework industry.
Plascoat offers coatings that range from wire encapsulation to full adhesion, providing long lasting performance in internal and external environments.
Plascoat LDPE
Plascoat Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is a general purpose coating material and is particularly suitable for domestic wirework and tubular metal applications.
Available in a variety of colours, Plascoat LDPE offers:
- Wide colour selection and attractive finish;
- Easy application and superior edge and weld coverage;
- High energy and material efficiency;
- Food contact approvals;
- Excellent indoor service life.
Plascoat NG30
Plascoat NG30 has been specially developed so that it can be applied at a much lower temperature when compared to LDPE coatings.
NG30 can also be applied as a much thinner coating thereby allowing a reduction in powder usage.
Other benefits include:
- Available in white or black;
- Reduce powder consumption by 30% to 50%;
- Lower melting temperature helps to deliver lower application energy costs and reduce post-yellowing risk;
- Excellent indoor service life.
