Metal

The metal structures of our products, whether aluminium or steel, are coated with a powder finish made from epoxy-polyester resins. The paint process does not emit VOC or polluting gases because it uses a zirconium-based treatment, an element that does not pose a danger to the environment. By contrast, conventional paint tunnels rely on amorphous phosphating, and phosphate is a highly polluting product. The parts are cleaned with water before they are painted, and this water is reused in a closed loop. Any paint not used in the painting process is recovered, thus minimising the amount of paint waste generated. Natural gas is also used as a source of energy rather than oil, to further reduce the environmental impact.
