Market SegmentsWattyl Powder Coatings are used across a vast range of industry segments including industrial metal, functional, automotive, transportation, construction and electronics. Each segment may use a variety of coatings technologies to meet the demands of that particular market.

Industrial MetalThe industrial metals market segment covers a wide range of applications and substrates. Coatings technologies are selected from the Wattyl range to suit specifi c applications, thus providing the optimum balance of protection, functionality and aesthetic appeal. Examples of applications include tools and toolboxes, interior and exterior furniture, fences, transformers, lighting equipment and fi ttings, racking and storage systems, machines and machine components.

Commercial Building Wattyl Powder Coating systems are well suited to the protection of structural components and architectural features on commercial buildings. Commercial structures demand extremely durable coatings to ensure many years of service life with minimal maintenance costs. Wattyl products are available in a wide variety of common architectural colours and fi nishes. Uses include coatings for aluminium extrusion, shutters, handrails and cladding.

Functional The functional market segment demands high performance, particularly in terms of corrosion protection and impact and abrasion resistance. Applications are generally on a large scale and are typically subject to extreme conditions, including a wide range of operating

temperatures. Wattyl Powder Coatings technology has a proven track record of providing long-term protection under just such conditions. Product systems are used to protect items such as petroleum and liquefi ed natural gas (LNG) pipelines, valves and related components and concrete reinforcing.

Transportation and ConstructionThe coating needs of the transportation and construction industries are highly demanding, with this market segment incorporating mining, agricultural and earth-moving equipment and components. Wattyl Powder Coatings will meet those demands and are proven to provide reliable service in a wide range of applications and conditions. Valspar is the preferred supplier to some of the most well-known names in the heavy-duty-equipment manufacturing industry. They rely on Valspar to supply powder coatings to all of their OEM facilities and subcontractors.

Other SegmentsValspar services several other market segments with specialist powder coating products developed specifi cally to meet the needs of each industry.

Auomotive Components including interior and exterior decorative components, aluminium wheels, structural components.

Domestic appliances including washing machines, dryers, air-conditioners and microwave ovens.

Electronic Products including electrical insulation components, computer servers and communications components.

Products Wattyl Powder Coatings are available in a wide range of technology types to meet the individual demands of each market. Each product has been developed with specifi c performance characteristics in mind.

PolyesterPolyester technology is designed with an excellent combination of physical performance properties, making it suitable for a vast range of market segments and end uses. It offers excellent exterior durability, combining corrosion protection with excellent resistance to atmospheric degradation due to ultraviolet light. In addition, it also exhibits high impact strength, fl exibility and resistance to most common chemicals. Wattyl Polyester Powders provide a high quality fi nish suited to both interior and exterior applications. It is available in a wide variety of colours and sheen levels and may be applied over a suitable primer to provide extended exterior corrosion protection.

Epoxy Epoxy technology is engineered to protect steel structures from aggressively corrosive environments. The cured fi lm creates a tough coating that has excellent solvent and chemical resistance and is also highly abrasion resistant. Epoxy coatings offer the highest level of corrosion protection due to their highly cross-linked fi lm and excellent adhesion to the underlying substrate.

Other Technologies Available UrethaneUrethane technology offers outstanding resistance to exterior weathering. Urethane powder coatings have superior resistance to colour and gloss change due to exterior exposure. They also have excellent fl ow properties resulting in high surface depth of image.

Epoxy-Polyester HybridEpoxy-Polyester Hybrids combine the performance characteristics of both the Polyester and Epoxy technologies. They provide the excellent decorative appearance of a Polyester coating with and the outstanding protection that is offered by an Epoxy.

Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE)Fusion bonded epoxy technology provides exceptional chemical resistance, allowing coated items to endure exposure to a wide range of chemicals including aliphatic hydrocarbons, aqueous salts, and caustics. FBE coatings also offer excellent fl exibility to meet the most demanding in-fi eld conditions such as bending, abrasion and extreme temperatures.

PrimersWattyl Powder Coatings epoxy metal primers provide extended corrosion protection to the underlying substrate through either barrier and/or galvanic protection. Primers are typically used to extend the service life of the coating system or in harsh exposure environments such as coastal and marine locations. Epoxy Metal Primer (PFA70009) provides excellent barrier protection and can fi ll minor defects in the substrate. Epoxy Metal Primer is typically used on aluminium and galvanised surfaces and can be sanded to improve the appearance of the topcoat. Zinc Rich Epoxy Primer (PFA50003) is designed to provide enhanced corrosion protection through galvanic protection of steel. The product is applied to a blast cleaned surface to signifi cantly extend the service life of the coating system. Both primers have excellent edge retention characteristics which is critical in extending coating life as edges are particularly susceptible to damage and corrosion.

Wattyl Powder Coatings are produced using the latest manufacturing techniques. This ensures superior control of particle size distribution and batch-to-batch consistency. The state-of-the-art manufacturing facility is certifi ed to ISO9001 so customers can be assured that all products will meet their exacting standards with consistency in both appearance and performance.

Wattyl Powder Coatings have excellent resistance to atmospheric exposure and hence, provide long-term durability and serviceability. Furthermore, they are formulated to provide excellent fl ow and levelling characteristics for a smooth and uniform fi nish. Wattyl Powder Coatings are stocked in a wide range of colours and colour matching is also available on request. A variety of gloss levels and fi nishes including textures, metallics and other specialty fi nishes, are also available.

Wattyl Powder Coatings are an environmentally friendly coating solution that emits near-zero VOCs (volatile organic compounds). They also produce minimal waste with close to 100% of overspray being reclaimable or recyclable.

Wattyl Powder Coatings are manufactured by the Valspar Group. Valspar is a global leader in the paint and coatings industry. The excellent standards of Valspar’s powder coatings have been proven in a variety of applications across the United States, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Valspar is also committed to research and development with extensive investment directed towards its Global Technology Centre. Customers can be confi dent that Valspar’s products utilise the latest and best technologies.
