RIPOL, the Italian company producing high-quality powder coatings, has received, again for 2024, the prestigious QUALICOAT certification for its product series dedicated to the world of architecture. The 52L, 55R, 56L, 58L and 59L series have been submitted to the severe laboratory tests required by the European organization QUALICOAT, confirming their quality and reliability.
QUALICOAT is the trademark for promoting and verifying the quality of coatings used on aluminum for architectural applications. To hold the QUALICOAT certification is to ensure that certified products meet the quality requirements established by an independent institute, which periodically verifies the chemical, physical, mechanical and durability properties of powder coatings. The QUALICOAT mark is globally recognized and ensures that products comply with current regulations and required technical specifications.
RIPOL coating solutions that have obtained QUALICOAT certification are polyester systems that meet the highest requirements in terms of weather resistance, color stability, gloss retention and resistance to corrosion and moisture. These products are available in a variety of colors and finishes to meet customers’ needs. In addition, many of them are available for prompt delivery, thus offering fast and efficient supply.
To obtain certification, RIPOL products had to pass a series of tests, according to ISO 17025, which verified their properties and their performance under various environmental stresses and conditions of use, such as adhesion, hardness, flexibility and weathering test, all achieving excellent results.
Using a QUALICOAT-certified RIPOL powder coating for your architectural projects means choosing a guarantee of quality and reliability for aluminum coaters, who can count on products that maintain excellent performance in terms of resistance, durability and sustainability. It also means contributing to environmental protection, as RIPOL powder coatings have a very low environmental impact, contain no solvents and do not release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere.
