Hardware
Often, we look at hardware like a door handle and bathroom faucet, or even plant hangers and brackets and don’t realize it is powder coated. That’s because the IFS Purecoat powder clear coat range has been designed to add high level protection while allowing the metal look to shine through.
Alternatively adding both protection and color to hardware is also easy. As color experts, we have created a great range of colors that will complement the hardware design or its surroundings beautifully.
Typically, hardware is used outside which means the coating has to stand up to weathering, humidity, salty air and even corrosion potential. We are using the expertise we gained in the architectural market and transferring that to industry leading products designed specifically for hardware. Both our colors and our clear coat powders stand up to these conditions and will meet and exceed the performance expectations of many specifications.
IFS powders for hardware can be used on many different products and if you're not sure if our powders will work for your application, our coating experts will be happy to advise you. A few of the applications our powders have been used on are:
- Door handles and knobs
- Window fastenings
- Hinges
- Door kick plates
- Faucets
- Bathroom hardware e.g. towel racks
- Gate hardware
- Garage hardware
- Cabinet hardware
- Plant hangers and brackets
