Peridium Powder Coatings are manufactured by using a process that utilizes fourth generation German and Swiss premixing, extruding and grinding equipment, which offers production control and efficiency. A computer-aided laser defraction unit measures powder particle size and particle distribution, which centers around tightly controlled, smaller average particle size. Peridium Powder Coatings have high first-pass transfer efficiency and electrostatic wrap for powder coating end users. The coatings are available in a wide variety of colors, glosses, finishes and chemistries. Peridium Powder Coatings are offered in epoxy, epoxy-polyester hybrids, TGIC polyester and urethane polyester formulas.
