From foundations to building components, we've got you coated.
Building Coatings that Last
In the architectural industry, buildings and architectural components need sturdy foundations, top-notch durability, and protection against corrosion and environmental elements, all while maintaining an appealing aesthetic. Powder coatings offer a more eco-friendly option compared to other surface finishes, providing increased durability for architectural applications.
TCI offers a variety of product series with a wide selection of powder finishes and a range of colors to choose from. Our products provide excellent edge coverage, contain no VOCs, offer superior mar resistance, cure at temperatures of 400 F and below, do not need a primer, and have long-lasting life cycles. You can also benefit from LEED credits, high application efficiency of 95% or more, and competitive applied costs.

Primers
Powder coatings are extremely durable, exceptionally resistant to corrosion, and able to withstand exposure to harsh UV rays. Even so, in some circumstances a dual layer is recommended to achieve optimal corrosion resistance and meet specific appearance requirements. In these cases, use a primer base coat.
