‘Further Guidance from Qualicoat’

With the introduction of the ‘Seaside’ class of architectural powder coating Qualicoat have now completed a new guidance note to assist specifiers when projects are in close proximity to the coast.

“Guide to use of powder coated aluminium in coastal regions” is available as a download from the Qualicoat UK & Ireland website at www.qualicoatuki.org. The guide explains the problems associated with coastal areas and how to safeguard finishes by correct specification and application. This is the third in a range of guides produced by Qualicoat to assist specifiers in the correct use and maintenance of architectural powder coated material.

The new standard confirms Qualicoat’s commitment to developing, testing and maintaining the highest possible standards for architectural aluminium fenestration.
