Innovative Powder Coatings that Perform as Well as They Look

STD. Platinum represents a breakthrough in powder coating technology. Coatings offer FGIA/AAMA 2605 compliance, backed by more than 10 years of test data (Florida), and a high transfer efficiency rate that is 20% higher than standard FEVE powders. But that’s just the beginning—follow along below to learn more about the color and performance benefits available for architectural and extrusion sheet aluminum.

A New Study of Competing FEVE Fluoropolymer Coatings

A recent study demonstrates that STD. Platinum powder is in a class of its own. Compared to other hyper-durable products on the market, STD. Platinum exhibited twenty times the color retention of competitors’ FEVE powder coatings. New data indicates that STD. Platinum maintains its performance significantly at the five-year mark, whereas competing architectural powder coatings show a notable decline in color stability.

STD. Platinum FEVE fluoropolymer powder coatings were designed with color fastness and longevity in mind.

Benefits

Superior Color Retention: Compared to other hyper-durable products, STD. Platinum showed twenty times the color retention of competitors.

Minimal Color Loss: STD. Platinum exhibited only a 6% loss in color retention over a five-year period, while similarly colored competitor products demonstrated more than a 100% loss in color retention in the same period.

High Transfer Efficiency: Over 20% improvement over standard FEVE powder, resulting in less waste and better coverage.

Extended Gloss Range: 5 – 85. compared to 25 – 70 for standard FEVE products.

Reduced Oven Emissions: 70% less e-cap (oven smoke and oven build-up).

Improved Corrosion Performance: On aluminum in a single coat.

Wide Selection of Colors and Effects: Including popular anodized metal finishes.
