Intended for use on architectural metalwork, external and internal, including aluminium, stainless steel, mild steel, cast metals, galvanized and zinc-sprayed substrates.

Suitable for the following environments: Interior Dry (C1), Rural (C2), Urban (C3), Industrial (C4), Coastal (C5).

Typical applications include:

• Architectural metalwork, balustrades and railings, balconies, feature steelwork handrails, Juliet balconies, cosmetic steelwork, staircases, facade cladding architectural cast iron, gates, sculptures, public realm furniture, feature structural steel, curtain walling, canopies, planters, landscape edging.

The Vantage Textured Range of powders are designed for areas where a low sheen textured or sandblasted effect is desired, and attention to aesthetics and quality is important.

Available in an exclusive selection of superior quality shades including metallics, Micaceous Iron Oxide (MIO) and other effects to compliment architectural design.

Features and benefits:

• Aesthetic finish: provides a visually appealing textured finish with a unique look, and can disguise imperfections on the underlying surface.
• Slip resistance: the textured surface can improve grip and reduce the risk of slipping, making it ideal for applications requiring more grip.
• Sound dampening: textured coatings can also contribute to sound dampening, reducing noise levels in certain environments.
• High performing finish: excellent for architectural applications, both internal and external, and ideally suited to public spaces and high-traffic areas due to its superior resistance to wear and tear.
• Enhanced durability: The high-grade PPC offers long-term cosmetic and functional protection for a long-lasting finish. Resistant to scratches, scuffs and general wear and tear.
• Weather resistance: highly weather-resistant and UV stable.
• International Standards in Quality Assurance: Meets Qualicoat and Qualisteelcoat standards - the International Gold Standards in coating systems for aluminium and steel, providing the highest levels of quality assurance.
• Pretreatment compatibility: compatible with a variety of anti-corrosion treatments including Bradleys Qualizinc Ultra-Life Arc Metal Spray. Used in conjunction with Bradleys Bondakote Primer system creates excellent adhesion and greater longevity.
• Bespoke colours and effects: in addition to the range of colours available, bespoke colour matching and special effect finishes are available upon special request.

Sustainability:

Vantage Texture offers several environmental benefits within the parameters of ISO 14001 environmental management system:

• Low VOC emissions: Vantage Texture finishes emit minimal volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air. VOCs contribute to air pollution and can harm human health.
• Efficient application: when you apply Vantage Texture powder coating, about 90% of what’s sprayed adheres to the metal surface. The remaining powder can be collected, filtered, and reused. Any leftover powder is safely disposed of as inert material.
• No hazardous waste: unlike some wet paint processes, Vantage Texture powder coating does not produce hazardous waste. The process takes place in sealed booths, ensuring minimal environmental impact.
• Elimination of hazardous substances: Vantage Texture finishes do not require hazardous air pollutants (HAPs).
• Enhanced durability: Vantage Texture-finished surfaces are highly durable, reducing the need for frequent repair. Long-lasting finishes mean fewer resources used over time.
• TGIC-free: eliminating the risk of TGIC related adverse health effects.
• Lightweight materials: Vantage Texture powder coating is a lightweight material adding no significant weight to the substrate which contributes to energy-efficient designs.
• Promotes sustainability: Vantage Texture-finished products are more sustainable due to their durability, reducing the demand for new raw materials.

In summary, Vantage Texture aligns with sustainability goals by reducing environmental impact and promoting long-term resource conservation.
