What is QUALICOAT?
QUALICOAT is an internationally recognised quality label for powder coating on architectural aluminium. The specification defines strict requirements for coating performance, application processes and laboratory testing to ensure long-term durability and consistent product quality.
Manufacturers and coating applicators who are QUALICOAT approved must regularly perform a series of standardised tests on coated panels. These tests verify key coating properties such as adhesion, hardness, flexibility, thickness, gloss and resistance to mechanical stress.
The TQC Sheen Qualicoat Powder Coating Test Kit contains the essential instruments required to perform these quality control tests in accordance with the QUALICOAT specification.
