Capabilities

As a leading metal finishing company in the area, at Valmont Coatings, we offer a variety of anodized finishes. Our high-performance anodized finishes exhibit exceptional durability and aesthetics and are easy to clean and maintain. We offer several different types More... of anodized coatings, including chromate, sulfuric Type II and Type II color, Type III hard coat with color options, etc. Anodizing is an electrochemical process that converts the surface of the substrate to a protective anodized layer. The oxide finish is fully integrated with the underlying metal, so it will not chip or peel. Extremely strong and effective against corrosion, wear, and weathering, our anodized finishes are exceptionally durable and retain their appearance and protective qualities for decades. We operate computer-controlled and monitored anodizing lines with robotic loading, unloading, and transfer. We carry out a multi-stage pretreatment to prepare surfaces for the anodizing baths and maintain tight control over current and bath chemistry to ensure accurate and uniform coverage and coating thickness. In addition to Type II color anodizing with a bright dip or etch pretreatment, we offer engineered Type III hard coat that produces a thicker coating. Creating distinctive looks such as marbling, fading, and photo-quality graphics are just a few of the things we can do. Our anodizing services include quality analytics of factors such as thickness, uniformity, density, corrosion resistance, and many other criteria per customer specifications. We anodize everything from heavy industrial machinery to point-of-purchase displays to recreational products, and much more. To learn more about our anodizing capabilities or to make an inquiry, contact us today. Less
At Valmont Coatings, we offer an extensive selection of coating options to satisfy the requirements of almost any application. As coating specialists, we have strong knowledge of hundreds of coating technologies and their use in industrial, commercial, and consumer More... applications. We serve customers in a diversity of industries and attribute our success to consistently providing superior service, impeccable quality, and on-time delivery.With our technical expertise, we provide solutions that protect and enhance products while improving their performance and increasing their lifespan. We offer liquid, powder, and e-coating systems with a mix of performance and aesthetic qualities. Using state-of-the-art equipment, we apply surface treatments that resist corrosion, abrasion and wear as well as those that protect against extreme thermal conditions, electrostatic discharge, and exposure to UV radiation. These are just a few examples – our range of protective and cosmetic solutions is enormous. Along with e-coating as a primer or finish coat, we have an expansive range of liquid coating options, including urethanes, epoxies, enamels, lacquers, and water-based paints in a wide variety of colors. We also have a multitude of powder chemistries for primer coats, clear coats, textured surfaces, and colors that both protect and enhance visual appeal.

At Valmont Coatings, we are one of the world’s largest and most experienced companies in the area of galvanizing. We offer both hot-dip and spin galvanizing services from our expansive network of finishing facilities located in the United States and around the More... globe. Galvanizing is a cost-effective method for providing long-term corrosion protection, even in the harshest conditions. We process parts of all shapes and sizes — in addition to having the largest galvanizing kettle in the world, we also operate fully automated spin lines for galvanizing nuts, bolts, hinges, and other small parts. Our hot-dip galvanizing process has three stages: surface preparation, galvanizing, and inspection. Surface prep involves degreasing and pickling to remove surface contaminants such as dirt, grease, oil, mill scale, and iron oxides. We then flux with a zinc ammonium chloride solution to remove any residual oxides and allow a protective layer to form that prevents any further oxidation before galvanizing. To galvanize, we submerge objects in high-purity molten zinc, which reacts with the substrate to form a coating of metallurgically bonded zinc-alloy layers. This coating is harder than the base metal, extremely corrosion, abrasion, and impact resistant, and lasts for decades. Our inspection process involves visual assessment for quality as well as tests for coating thickness and adherence to ASTM standards. Our material handlers and coating technicians are expertly trained in the most efficient processes, and we have a series of lean best practices in force across all of our facilities to ensure consistently high standards. Our customers have access to our innovative order tracking system, keeping them connected to their product throughout the entire galvanizing process. With our superior service, impeccable quality, fast turnaround, and on-time delivery, we provide the best possible value to our customers. To learn more about the technical aspects of galvanizing, our galvanizing services, or to make an inquiry, contact us directly. Less
