Powder Coating for Industrial and Structural Applications

Industrial metal components take a lot of punishment. Handrails in a factory get knocked, structural steel in outdoor installations faces UV and moisture, and machine guards in production environments see chemical exposure daily.

Powder coating outperforms wet paint in these conditions. The cured coating bonds directly to the metal surface rather than sitting on top, which gives it better impact resistance, chemical resistance, and long-term durability.

At Star Powder Coating, we handle industrial and structural work from our Dandenong South workshop. Our oven takes components up to 7.5 metres long, which covers most structural sections and fabricated assemblies in this category.

What We Coat: Industrial and Infrastructure

Structural steel: RHS, SHS, angle iron, flat bar, channel, I-beam, welded assemblies
Handrails and balustrades: mild steel and aluminium, posts, top rails
Safety barriers: pedestrian barriers, machine guards, bollards, safety rail systems
Mezzanine floors: structural frames, post and beam assemblies, decking supports
Racking and storage: pallet racking uprights, shelving sections, industrial storage
Machine frames and guards: fabricated steel enclosures, equipment guards, support frames
Site infrastructure: access platforms, walkway frames, stair stringers, landing plates

Our Capabilities for Industrial Work

Oven capacity: up to 7.5m. This is important for structural work because it means long sections and large fabricated assemblies can go in whole rather than requiring disassembly.

Three production lines let us process industrial batch jobs without the delays you'd get from a single-line operation.

Pre-treatment is standard on all industrial work. We clean and prepare the metal surface before application to ensure proper adhesion and long-term coating performance.

Colour options for industrial: standard safety colours (yellow, red, orange, green, blue, black), custom corporate colours, and the full Dulux Powdercoat and Interpon range.

Industries We Work With

Manufacturing: machine guards, safety barriers, equipment frames, walkways
Construction: structural steel, balustrades, handrails, site infrastructure
Warehousing and logistics: racking, mezzanines, barriers, trolley frames
Mining and resources: equipment components, structural supports, safety systems
Transport and infrastructure: signage frames, safety barriers, infrastructure components

If you're a fabricator or engineering company in the SE Melbourne area, contact us to discuss batch pricing and turnaround for your industrial coating requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you powder coat assembled structural frames or just individual components?

Both. Our 7.5m oven handles large assembled sections. For very complex assemblies with internal cavities, contact us before fabrication to discuss how to optimise the design for coating.

What colours are available for industrial powder coating?

Standard safety colours (AS1318 colour coding: yellow, red, orange, green, blue, black, white), full Dulux Powdercoat range, full Interpon range, and custom colour matching. Contact us with your colour specification.

Do you handle batch industrial orders from fabricators?

Yes. We regularly work with metal fabricators on production batches. Call (03) 9799 9136 to discuss volumes, turnaround, and pricing.

What is the maximum size component you can coat?

7.5 metres long. This is one of the larger ovens available in the Dandenong South area.

Do I need to prepare the surface before dropping off?

Basic cleaning is helpful but not required. We handle pre-treatment in-house. If parts have existing coatings that need stripping, let us know when you enquire.
