High Transfer Efficiency (HTE) Powder

Surface Finish Options Overview

With exceptional adhesion and strength, HTE powder coatings are engineered to electrostatically wrap around and penetrate deep recesses and angles of intricately shaped parts, achieving first-pass efficiency rates of up to 85% or higher.

Compared to standard powder coatings, these next-generation polyester-based formulations reduce per-item powder consumption by 20-25%, enhance finish quality, improve line speed, and minimize downtime required for cleaning, resulting in impressive first-pass build rates.

Developed with an exclusive cross-link polymer, STD provides uniform coverage on complex metal parts and assemblies such as refrigerator racks, shelving, patio tables, architectural components, and other finished goods.

A standout in the coatings industry, STD powder coatings are available in both durable and ultra-durable polyester formulations and are suitable for cold-rolled steel, hot-rolled steel, aluminum, and iron substrates.
