Powder coating, a dry powder application method, revolutionizes protective and decorative finishing across various materials. Unlike liquid paint, powder coating doesn’t require solvents, offering an environmentally friendly solution.
Applied to aluminum, powder coating enhances its resistance to corrosion and environmental damage, ensuring longevity and durability. At our state-of-the-art facility, aluminum profiles undergo meticulous cleaning, chromating, and electrostatic spraying of polyester powder under controlled conditions. The coated profiles are then cured in specialized ovens to achieve a durable, uniform finish.
Our on-site powder coating facility offers a wide range of RAL colors, with lengths of up to 6.8 meters. Equipped with precision instruments, our plant ensures quality control to meet the stringent standards set by QUALICOAT. Compliant with local and international standards such as QUALICOAT, BS EN, and ISO, our powder coating products and processes guarantee excellence and reliability.
Aluminium alloys and tempers
Emirates Extrusion produces most of customer requirements in its facilities using alloys 6061 and 6063 with T4, T5 and T6 tempers.
6061 is a precipitation hardeningg aluminum alloy, containing magnesium and silicon as its major alloying elements. It has good mechanical properties and exhibits good weldability. It is one of the most common alloys of aluminum for general purpose use.
6063 is an aluminum alloy, with magnesium and silicon as the alloying elements. It has generally good mechanical properties and is heat treatable and weldable. 6063 is mostly used in extruded shapes for architecture, particularly window frames, door frames, and roofs. It is typically produced with very smooth surfaces fit for anodizing.
- T4: Solution heat treated and naturally aged to substantially stable condition
- T5: Cooled from an elevated temperature and then artificially age hardened
- T6: Solution heat treated and artificially age hardened
