Finish system
Thermoset polyester (TGIC-free / HAA cured)

Our electrostatic powder coating system utilizes a thermoset polyester resin matrix cured without TGIC (Triglycidyl Isocyanurate) or HAA, relying instead on hydroxyalkylamide cross-linking agents to achieve a dense, non-porous surface layer on 304 stainless steel substrates. This material: dry particulate formulation with median particle size 25-45 microns (ISO 8130-13), engineered for high-transfer efficiency on complex geometries.
The chemical backbone: saturated polyester resins undergoing irreversible cross-linking to form rigid 3D network. Unlike solvent-based liquids relying on evaporation, our powder: zero VOCs, eliminating hazardous air pollutant release during application.

Overview
Substrate compatibility calibrated for 304 food-grade stainless steel (ASTM A240 / EN 1.4301), ensuring coefficient of thermal expansion (17.3 × 10⁻⁶/°C for steel vs. 60-90 × 10⁻⁶/°C for coating) remains synchronized during 220°C curing cycle.
This synchronization prevents micro-cracking or delamination—failure modes common in systems where coating cannot accommodate thermal cycling. Absence of plasticizers, which migrate causing surface tackiness, ensures chemical inertness.
Formulation excludes lead, cadmium, chromium VI, aligning with LEED v4.1 and CDPH Section 01350 indoor air quality standards, contributing to SCS Global Services zero-formaldehyde certification. Pigment dispersion via twin-screw extrusion guarantees ΔE<1.0 color consistency across batches, critical for visual continuity in large-scale installations.
This material represents Fadior's second-generation surface technology, launched 2019, evolving from protective layers to structural components of glue-free cabinet architecture.
Material note
This finish shifts how the stainless steel surface reads, from warmer and softer to cleaner and more reflective.
Material note
The finish changes what you see and touch, while the stainless steel body underneath continues to carry the system.
Material note
The right finish depends on light, touch frequency, maintenance expectations, and how decorative the room should feel.
