Cleaning & Pretreating

Achieve optimal results for superior end products

AZZ Precoat Metals guarantees premium quality, durability, and performance for coated products with our thorough cleaning and pretreatment expertise. We eliminate dirt, debris, oils, and contaminants from the metal surface, establishing a smooth and uniform substrate that ensures a superior bond between the metal and coating. Our precise pretreatment, utilizing specialized chemicals, optimizes the surface for enhanced paint adhesion and corrosion resistance. This not only facilitates better formability but also enables the creation of complex shapes without compromising the integrity of the coating.

Why Choose Coil Coating

View Locations

Coil coating stands at the forefront of modern pre-paint technology, revolutionizing the way metal materials are finished before they enter the manufacturing or construction phase. The coil coating process is by far the fastest, most efficient, and environmentally friendly method for applying coatings to substrates. This process not only enhances the material’s aesthetic and functional qualities but also brings significant advantages such as cost efficiency, streamlined operations, and shorter production cycles. By choosing coil coating, businesses can enhance product quality, reduce operational costs, and embrace eco-friendly practices, positioning themselves at the cutting edge of industry standards.

Coil coating offers cost savings, efficiency improvements, and reduced cycle times

Using pre-painted metals enables businesses to focus on their core competencies and operate with greater flexibility and efficiency compared to post-paint processes. Companies can anticipate future cost savings on both metal and coating expenses. Additionally, capital costs can be avoided by reducing the square footage dedicated to post-paint operations. Optimized inventory management and better supply chain utilization further enhance cost efficiency.

Realize substantial cost savings

Coil coating offers significant cost savings and several advantages. Escalating in-house paint shop expenses makes pre-painted metal and aluminum a cost-effective alternative. It efficiently reduces internal operating costs by eliminating the need to manage in-house paint operations, adhere to EPA regulations, and allow for more efficient use of plant space.

Coil-coated metals are particularly advantageous during major manufacturing changes, plant downsizing, or consolidation, providing versatility, corrosion resistance, ease of handling, precision cutting, seamless welding, adhesive bonding, and adaptability to various applications.

Accelerate cycle time reduction

A significant benefit of AZZ Precoat Metals is the substantial reduction in production costs and time. Whether in-house or outsourced, businesses with post-paint processes can achieve shorter cycle times and reduced inventory requirements by transitioning to pre-painted materials. This efficiency translates into quicker turnaround times, increased productivity, and enhanced responsiveness to market demands.

Enhance quality and consistency

Pre-painted metals offer uniform and high-quality coatings, reducing variability and improving the overall coating quality. Our pre-paint processes ensure uniform coating coverage, resisting fading, corrosion, and rust. Additionally, the primer coat enhances corrosion resistance and durability. Coil-coated metals undergo a meticulous procedure, including cleaning, pretreatment, painting, and curing on a flat surface. This uniform process minimizes variations, ensuring a consistently high level of coating quality, virtually eliminating variability between the top and bottom edges.

Experience coating innovation

Our coatings span a wide range of gloss levels, colors, textures, lubricity, and flexibility, all while accommodating various metal sources. We offer the latest coated technology, including innovative solutions like antimicrobial coatings that protect against mold, mildew, and other microbes in coil-coated products. AZZ Precoat Metals coil-coated materials are ready for manufacturing, ensuring a seamless transition to production.

Reduce environmental impact

By adopting our coil coating solutions, you actively contribute to reducing environmental impact, minimizing waste, complying with regulations, and supporting a greener and more responsible manufacturing process.
