Industrial‑GradeFor SurfacesThat Need To Last
Richards Powdercoat LLC delivers professional powder coating services in Dunn, NC, serving Harnett, Wake, and Johnston County — industrial parts, architectural elements, and custom coatings, applied to spec and built to last.
Why Powder Coating Is the Right Choice
Powder coating outperforms liquid paint in durability, consistency, and long-term cost of ownership. It is the finishing standard for metal components that need to perform — not just look good on day one. Applied at our Dunn, NC facility to industrial and architectural standards.
Superior Durability
Powder coat finishes resist chipping, scratching, and UV degradation far better than liquid alternatives — critical for components exposed to industrial environments.
Color Consistency
Electrostatic application and controlled curing produce uniform color and texture across every piece in a batch — no brush marks, runs, or coverage inconsistencies.
Corrosion Resistance
When applied over properly pre-treated metal, powder coat creates a barrier against moisture and oxidation — extending the service life of coated parts significantly.
No VOC Emissions
Powder coating is an environmentally responsible finishing process — no solvents, no volatile organic compounds, and no hazardous waste streams associated with solvent-based paint.
Finish Versatility
From smooth gloss to textured matte, from standard RAL colors to metallic and hammertone effects — powder coating delivers a full range of aesthetic and functional finish options.
Production Scalability
Whether a single custom component or a recurring production run of thousands, powder coating maintains the same finish quality — making it ideal for both prototyping and manufacturing.
What We Do
Five Core
Capabilities
Industrial finishing, architectural work, custom and specialty coatings, surface preparation, and production run processing — under one roof at our Dunn, NC facility, under one quality standard.
Industrial Powder Coating
Durable coatings for structural steel, machinery components, equipment housings, and fabricated assemblies. Built for harsh environments and industrial service conditions.
Architectural Finishing
Precision color and texture matching for aluminum extrusions, railing systems, storefronts, window frames, and decorative metalwork requiring premium, consistent finishes.
Custom & Specialty Coatings
RAL color matching, textured effects, metallic and hammertone systems, multi-coat processes — for projects where standard options aren't enough.
Surface Preparation & Pre-Treatment
Chemical cleaning, degreasing, and iron phosphate pre-treatment ensure every surface is properly prepared before any powder is applied. The foundation of every lasting finish.
Production Run Processing
Volume capacity with consistent quality and reliable turnaround for manufacturers who need powder coating integrated into their production workflows. Recurring schedules available.
Our Process
How We Deliver
Consistent Quality
Every part through our facility follows a defined five-step process — from intake inspection to final quality review — because consistent quality requires consistent process.
Intake Inspection
Every part is inspected on arrival for condition, dimensional compliance, and coating specifications before processing begins.
Surface Pre-Treatment
Parts are chemically cleaned, degreased, and treated to remove contaminants and create an optimal bonding surface.
Masking & Preparation
Areas requiring masking — threads, bearing surfaces, assembly interfaces — are carefully protected before coating.
Electrostatic Application
Powder is applied with controlled electrostatic equipment, ensuring uniform coverage across complex geometries.
Curing & Inspection
Parts are cured in a controlled-temperature oven. Every batch inspected for finish consistency before release.
