PPG report looks at liquid vs. powder

PPG Industries’ industrial coatings business has published a new paper comparing the environmental, economical and performance advantages associated with the application of liquid and powder coatings on architectural aluminum.

The eight-page technical document reviews historical factors that have made liquid coatings the prevailing choice of North American architects and powder coatings the preferred option in Europe. It also examines environmental advantages associated with powder coatings and the design and custom-color benefits of liquid coatings. The paper notes that differences between the two types of coatings may be narrowing, offering architects and building owners a wider range of design and technology choices.
