Architectural coatings are an alternative to conventional paints that maximises an average building's lifetime performance in terms of durability, colour retention, maintenance and protection against both UV & corrosion. It uses environmentally-friendly selection of raw materials and state-of-the-art production processes and the powder application is very adaptable to individual design requirements. Learn about the differences between powder coatings & liquid paint, as well as manufacturing requirements, design opportunities and constraints, longevity and value, sustainability of the different treatments in their use and production. After completing this CPD delegates will: 1. Understand the sustainability benefits and design flexibility of the powder coatings. 2. Learn the differences between powder coating & liquid paint. 3. Learn the technical requirements that will be needed when specifying.
