It is important to consider many other factors besides just the price per litre/kg.
Does the product require an activator or hardener? How many coats are required to achieve the necessary corrosion protection and/or finish quality? What will it cost to dispose of any waste? What application/drying/curing facilities are required?
Make sure you assess the cost of the whole coating process, not just the direct material price.
Performance is best to be evaluated according to industry standards that quantify specific durability values and estimated service life such as ISO 129444 or NORSOK.
Application properties also affect “production” performance so it is important to research what spray equipment may be required and what ambient conditions are necessary for drying efficiently.
Poor surface preparation is the most frequent cause of metal coating issues.
Any metal substrate must be thoroughly degreased and abraded or blast cleaned to the specification on the paint data sheet in order to obtain its full performance.
Ensure correct film thicknesses are applied and curing is complete before handling to avoid damage to the coating.
Water-based coatings are starting to become more desired for protecting metal and paint technology is advancing to ensure equivalent performance to solvent-based.
There are a number of factors to consider but it doesn’t need to feel daunting as Kortec have the experience to support our clients through this process. A basic spray equipment changeover process can be found here WB to SB Instructions.
Our broad stock holding enables us to typically deliver goods ordered in 1-2 days. However, non-standard products may take 3-5 days to order and ship to you.

In an attempt to move away from solvent-based coatings, Symphony Group found a water-based coatings supplier, yet faced issues with finish quality & batch-to-batch colour consistency. Kortec assessed the process and implemented methods to make goals achievable... Read More

The KolorteqTM process enables accurate and consistent reproduction of standard and bespoke colours. This is vital for batch-to-batch consistency optimising client satisfaction and minimising remedial works.
Every colour/batch produced is checked against the respective control sample. These strict procedures have enabled us to achieve a client colour batch rejection rate of less than 1 in 2500.
At Kortec, we have 4 lab technicians with a combined total of over 40 years of expert experience in the coatings production industry, they are certified in the Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test.
For consistency and high-quality finish purposes, each batch of base material and pigments are checked prior to use to assess any variations in strength and our tinting formulations are adjusted to compensate prior to production.
