POWDER
Powder Coatings provide extremely tough, durable films enhancing the high quality image of consumer products. In general, the performance properties are superior to liquid paints and their use helps in reducing application costs with respect to energy savings, labour costs, rework costs, materials, waste disposal and overall line efficiency. Unlike many liquid paints they are compliant with environmental regulations, containing virtually no VOCs and with high recycling ability.
'25 years + life with correct pre-treatment and processing’
High performance coatings both stock and custom formulated, are available in Polyester, Epoxy and Epoxy/Polyester with almost unlimited choice of colour. Touch up paints are available to match the powder coatings in aerosol cans or quarter litre cans.
- Powdagalv. Zinc base powder coating having excellent anti-corrosion and filling properties, alternative to galvanising, in house!

WATERBASED AND COMPLIANT COATINGS
Environmental issues are now part of most companies manufacturing strategies. There is constant pressure from local authorities who have the power to enforce emission standards to reduce emissions to the air of Volatile Organic Compounds (V.O.C.s).
Ask us for a free report of your present VOC and emissions status and our recommendations.
Help us to reduce our emissions by reducing yours.
Water based and Compliant paints enable companies to reduce these emissions to the air to below published standards and in doing so contribute to the overall improvement of the environment.
Many customers now feel they are environmentally responsible to purchase goods that have been coated with environmentally friendly paints. Thomas Howse have for some years supplied such products and are continually striving to improve these products so as to meet technical demands of customer specifications, while meeting both the moral and legal aspects associated with their application, and most important to tackle global warming.
Most normal industrial paints, which many applicators are reluctant to change, are available in compliant form i.e. having lower VOC content, but retaining most of the properties of their existing paints, so change over is not disruptive to current application methods.
Fallacy – water based coatings do not wash off in water, in fact they are usually of higher specification.
Ask for a compliant version of your existing paint and our technical staff will help to ensure suitability and provide assistance in any transition.
Alternatively select a paint from our waterbased product range, many high performance coatings are now available including high performance exterior paints and floor coating. These have minimal VOC content, are much safer to use with regard to The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations (COSHH) and pose no Fire Hazard. Reduce your insurance costs!
Most of our air-drying water based systems can be dry in 10 minutes.
- “Eco Kleen” Water based degreasers
- Anti corrosion primers
- Exterior and Interior Finishing coats
- Two pack epoxy floor paints
- Wood lacquers
- Rustcote converts stubborn or impractical to remove rust by converting to hard complex ready for overcoating.
