Pre-Treatment

Chemical pre-treatment is designed to modify the surface of aluminium whilst still maintaining durable performance. The aluminium is submerged in the chemicals to remove residual oil and oxide films as well as provide corrosion protection and modify the surface for enhanced adhesion of the powder coat. 


Southside Powder Coaters are committed to keeping up to date with the latest technology and environmentally friendly products. In 2017 we have made the switch to a Chromium(VI)-free pre-treatment system which is QUALICOAT approved, as well as installing a RO (Reverse Osmosis) system to keep our pre-treatments tanks clean and running at their optimum.
