Kawneer’s existing powder coating facility was converted to ‘chrome free’ – the first existing plant in the UK to be upgraded to this environmentally friendlier pre-treatment system.
Kawneer Permacover™ is a high quality polyester powder paint finish, offering a wide range of solid and metallic colours, providing outstanding resistance to environmental conditions.
Finishes are applied by a 12 stage pre-treatment process to achieve maximum exterior durability; our Matt, Gloss and Satin finishes are guaranteed up to 30 years. Aluminium profiles are chemically pre-treated prior to the application of coatings, which are fully heat-cured to produce the final protective coating. Kawneer’s in-house paint plant gives complete control over paint quality. Guarantees are subject to application and Kawneer acceptance in marine, industrial, swimming pools or other aggressive atmospheres.
Kawneer Permanodic® is a range of subtle anodised colours which have been specifically developed for architectural glazing systems.
Kawneer anodised colours are obtained by giving the complete aluminium profiles a caustic etch, followed by anodic treatment, to produce a high density aluminium oxide coating. The aluminium oxide has a minimum coating thickness of 25 microns. The aluminium is immersed in specific electrolytes and subjected to stringent process controls, to produce a hard coating which forms an extremely durable protective surface which is fade free.
A well tried colour anodising process, proven in accelerated laboratory tests, extensive field trials and contract experience gives architects and specifiers product confidence. By interference colouring, produced by enlarging the anodic pores and depositing nickel metal in the base, a steel blue-grey colour is produced which is fade free.
Subject to compliance with Kawneer’s requirements, a 25-year finishes guarantee can be obtained.

There are a growing number of UK specifications that include the QUALICOAT Standard. Architects are turning to QUALICOAT for powder coating specification as the standard is constantly being kept up to date with new technology and extensive research undertaken by its members.
Quality and consistency of quality, continues to be highlighted by QUALICOAT UK & Ireland, which includes third party testing of all certified powder formulations and pre-treatment systems that make up the QUALICOAT approval process.
