Powder Painting & Coating Services

Durable, consistent, aesthetic-quality finishing — integrated with fabrication for
complete, ready-to-ship product.

Finishing is where a lot of fabricated product falls short. Jor-Mac runs in-house powder coating built to deliver the aesthetic quality our customers’ end products demand — and because it’s integrated with our fabrication, your parts are finished, assembled, and ready to ship without leaving the building. Not many metal fabricators produce this level of finish in-house and at this scale.


Two Automated Lines & Batch Booth

We run two automated conveyor lines plus a batch booth, and route each part to where it will
finish best:

  • Automated conveyor lines — efficient, consistent finishing for panels and the high-
    throughput majority of parts.
  • Batch booth — for very large or fully welded enclosures that need a static setup to reach
    every surface, and for very small, high-volume parts that can’t ride a moving line without
    risk of being knocked off the hangers.
    On a complex enclosure this often means finishing the welded base in the batch booth and the
    surrounding panels on the automated line — then assembling the finished unit.

Capabilities

Additional Details

Both automated lines run a five-stage wash — one iron phosphate, one zirconium-based —
that prepares the surface for strong, consistent powder adhesion and reduces the risk of dirt
contamination. Surface preparation, not just the powder itself, is what separates a finish that
lasts from one that doesn’t.

With 200+ colors available, most customers arrive with a specified color and a preferred paint
supplier, and we finish to it. When a part is internal or doesn’t have to match anything, we’ll
often recommend a standard color over a custom one to save cost, since custom colors carry
minimum-buy quantities. For true custom colors, we maintain strong relationships with our paint
suppliers to color-match; depending on complexity, matching can take anywhere from about 4 to
26 weeks — so it’s worth starting early.

For outdoor and utility applications, our finishing carries IEEE/ANSI C57.12.28 certification at
both facilities and in the batch booth — testing coverage, impact resistance, and
weather/corrosion resistance when finishing over galvannealed, stainless, or hot-rolled steel.
We finish to the standard utility colors used on outdoor pad-mount switchgear: Munsell Green,
ANSI 70, and ANSI 61 Gray. Where required, finishes are validated to 1,000-hour salt spray
performance through third-party testing — the benchmark for severe outdoor and coastal
environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Look at real production parts coming off the line during a quality audit, not sprayed test panels. Anyone can spray a sample; consistent quality on actual production product is what tells you what you’ll receive.

No — we coat what we fabricate. Finishing is part of delivering a complete product rather than a standalone service.

More than 200 colors are available. Most customers arrive with a specified color and a preferred paint supplier, and we finish to it. We can color-match custom colors through our paint suppliers; depending on complexity, matching runs about 4 to 26 weeks. Because custom colors carry minimum-buy quantities, we’ll often recommend a standard color to save cost where an exact match isn’t required.

We run two automated conveyor lines for panels and the high-throughput majority of parts, plus a batch booth for very large or fully welded enclosures that need a static setup to reach every surface — and for very small, high-volume parts that can’t safely ride a moving line. On a complex enclosure, the welded base is often finished in the batch booth and the panels on the automated line.
