Beauty and function

The powder coating systems of Helios Coatings Italia offer completely new perspectives for the functional paints of the future. Depending on the application, today a paint can be resistant to chemicals, antibacterial, conductive, applied in a thin, non-slip, structured, metallic or even pearlescent layer. The number of possible variants is almost unlimited. The company’s internal engineers, in charge of development, create system solutions specifically designed according to the customer’s needs, with absolutely customized features. In the internal research and development laboratories, these solutions are developed in every detail in close collaboration with the customer and tested for optimal use in practice

The quality requirements of powder coatings are constantly growing and, with them, also the technical standards at the production level. A fundamental prerequisite for Helios Coatings Italia, therefore, is the continuous investment in the production machinery and equipment of the company’s internal testing laboratories, to ensure constant and reliable high quality. The company produces a total of about 12,000 tons of powder paint per year, in various special shades, with particular aesthetic and mechanical characteristics.
