Northeast Connecticut Metal Coating Specialists 

At Giering Metal Finishing, we specialize in delivering premium powder coating solutions that combine durability, aesthetics, and environmental responsibility. With over 70 years of expertise, our advanced capabilities and consultative approach ensure the perfect finish for projects of any size or complexity.

Advanced Production Capabilities

We accommodate a wide range of production needs with our state-of-the-art powder coating systems. Fully automated lines handle high-volume orders efficiently, while semi-automated systems are ideal for medium volumes. For smaller runs or custom jobs, our manual batch systems ensure precision and flexibility. This versatility enables us to deliver on projects ranging from one part to millions, all with consistent quality.

Diverse Coating Options

Our extensive range of powders includes a variety of colors, gloss levels, and textures to meet specific design and functional requirements. RAL offers the most popular color selections for powder coatings with many offered with different glosses and textures. Custom color matching is available through Pantone and Munsell systems, with additional support from suppliers for unique finishes. Whether you need decorative appeal, corrosion resistance, or both, we offer tailored solutions using high-performance chemistries like epoxies, polyesters, and hybrids.

Durable and Eco-Friendly Finishes

Powder coating offers superior durability, making it more resistant to chipping, scratching, and fading compared to other finishes. This method is also environmentally friendly, as it is VOC-free and produces minimal waste. Overspray can often be reused, reducing costs and environmental impact. By choosing powder coating, clients not only benefit from exceptional performance but also contribute to sustainable practices.

Powder Coating Chemistries

Powder coating is a preferred finishing method for a wide range of industries. In automotive, it enhances wheels, bumpers, and trim with durable protection and vibrant finishes. For architectural projects, it delivers long-lasting coatings on metal structures, meeting demanding performance standards. Everyday products like appliances, outdoor furniture, and fitness equipment also benefit from its reliable and attractive finish.

Epoxies

  • Ideal for applications requiring ultimate corrosion resistance.
  • Known for superior adhesion, excellent chemical resistance, and inherent toughness.
  • Can be custom-tailored for applications like long-term dielectric strength at high temperatures.
  • Not suitable for outdoor use as exposure to UV light causes degradation (chalking).

Polyesters & Polyester Urethanes

  • Offer much better weatherability than epoxies.
  • Durable coatings with long-term resistance to humidity and corrosion.
  • Excellent mar and chip resistance for outdoor applications.

Polyesters

  • Available in TGIC and TGIC-free formulations.
  • Provide toughness, attractive finishes, and over-bake resistance.
  • Suitable for prolonged outdoor exposure, often used for lawn and garden furniture and other outdoor equipment.
  • Clear coats can enhance exterior performance when applied over a base coat.

Hybrids

  • Blend of epoxy and polyester resins, offering reduced cost for indoor applications.
  • Better penetration into corners and recesses (Faraday Cage Areas).
  • Less sensitive to over-baking during curing compared to other chemistries.

Polyurethanes

  • Known for outstanding thin-film appearance and toughness.
  • Excellent weatherability, competitive with high-quality liquid paints.
  • Superior chip, mar, and scuff resistance.
  • Adhere well to ferrous and non-ferrous substrates, offering long-term resistance to humidity and salt spray.
