Coil coatings business

Business

Our Coil coatings business focuses on applied to an extensive range of metallic sheets, such as galvanized steel, aluminum, and stainless steel,etc. It provides colors and functionality to a wide range of applications, including building materials and home electric appliances. Moreover, we undertake creative and venturing efforts to explore untapped areas, such as research and development of coatings applied to nonmetallic substrates.

Business overview

About our business areas

Secure position with an overwhelmingly large domestic market share

We enjoy a domestic market share of 70%, far ahead of others, in coil coatings due to our steady provision of dependable quality and ability to provide color consulting services. While offering improved basic paint film properties, such as weatherability, solvent resistance, workability, and adhesion, we provide products that boost productivity via a continuous coating process and minimize wasted coatings. Our coil coaintgs paint products are environmental friendly because solvents emitted from them are burned in an oven, emitting no VOCs into the atmosphere. Meanwhile, overseas markets have been increasingly booming in recent years. We are making active sales promotion efforts, especially in the Asian region. As our new market strategy, we have undertaken a project to achieve value-added technological innovation.

Our strengths

Preparing high-performance and highly aesthetic stock materials

By applying before forming, coil coatings meet the performance and aesthetic needs of final products. Prepared materials are known as colored steel sheets.

Applications

Actually colored steel sheets are conventional materials.

Applications of colored steel sheets range widely, from exterior items, including roofing, siding walls of buildings, shutters, and doors, to indoor items, including home electric appliances, blinds, and partitions. They add vivid colors everywhere in town and to everywhere scenes.

Future possibilities

Untiringly addressing the challenge of achieving seemingly incompatible properties

The most notable feature of colored steel sheets is that they are hard yet flexible. The finish achieved with an approximately 25 µm coating endures pressure and impact that the sheet receives when undergoing a forming process. We are endeavoring to develop an advanced technology for adding value for specific applications while achieving seemingly incompatible properties of toughness combined with superb flexibility. Another attractive point of the use of colored steel sheets is that the coating period can be reduced. They are suitable for a wide range of applications as products for speedy and versatile arrangements.

Various coating processes

Coil coating process

The coating method known as “roll coating” is used to produce colored steel sheets. Typically, steps from chemical conversion treatment to film formation onto a steel product are carried out in a continuous process, enabling the steel to be finished to a uniform texture at a high speed in a short period of time.
