Whether you have furniture, casings, racking, shop fittings, signage, components, equipment, transportation components or fencing, Dulux Powders provide you with the confidence and quality that will make it all worthwhile.
Non-habitable projects are those items that are not dwelling types. Examples can be furniture, bus shelters, statues, signage through to industrial items such as appliances, components and fittings, automotive components, equipment eg. lawn mowers, public transportation.
One of the largest categories is furniture which can include cabinets, racking, lockers, tables and chairs for offices, retail and exhibitions. These are all items that are not attached to a building and so not covered by the residential or commercial categories. To help in this process we utilise:
1. Industry standards for powder coatings
2. Environmental condition utilising AS4312 as a guide
All Dulux powder products are NOT suitable in strongly acidic or caustic environments so the pH must be between 5 and 9.
Please refer to Interior Environments close to liquids for warranty implications where powder coatings may be in close proximity to liquids.
Information for Perforated and Expanded aluminium:
Alumi Shield Warranties on perforated and expanded aluminium in interior environments are available for the following products and conditions:
a. General – Duralloy, Precious, Charisma, Electro, Duratec and Fluoroset (E-Prime base coat not mandatory).
b. Moderate – Duratec, Charisma, Electro and Fluoroset (E-Prime base coat mandatory).
For more information about specifications on perforated and expanded aluminium call 0800 800 975 or visit here
Use the following table which references AS2312.1, SNZTS 3404 and ISO 9223 to identify the environment, conditions and atmospheric corrosivity categories
1. Aggressive liquids such as Chemically Treated liquids and Salt Water must be cleaner off immediately as per the Dulux Care and Maintenace guide.
Please note chemically treated water includes antimicrobial treatments, e.g. in pools, anti-corrosive chemicals, and soapy water in bathrooms and showers.
■ Where indicated Alumi Shield and Steel Shield warranties are available on areas >than 1m from the liquid.
✓ Where indicated Alumi Shield and Steel Shield warranties are available on areas >than 2m from the liquid (ie outside the splash zone).
● Where indicated Alumi Shield and Steel Shield warranties are available any distance from the liquid.
Alumi Shield and Steel Shield warranties are only available when applied by a Dulux Accredited Powder Coater to the warranty specification on recommended project types and conditions.
All Dulux powder product are NOT suitable in strongly acidic or caustic environments so the pH must be beween 5 and 9.
Alumi Shield warranties are not available if the powder coating is immersed in any liquid.
Use the following table which references AS2312.1, SNZTS 3404 and ISO 9223 to identify the environment, conditions and atmospheric corrosivity categories
1. Geothermal environments greater than 500m of a bore, mud pool, steam vent, or other source with a pH between 5 and 9. For pH outside this consult Dulux.
2. Geothermal hot spots within 500m of a bore, mud pool, steam vent, or other source.
3. All offshore islands including Waiheke Island, Stewart Island, Fraser Island and Pacific islands eg PNG, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Tahiti, Noumea
4. The corrosion rates for the first year of exposure for the different corrosivity categories of Aluminium and Carbon (Mild) Steel are determined by the following standards:
SNZ TS 3404 – Standards NZ Technical Specification – Durability requirements for steel structures & components
AS 2312.1 – Guide to the protection of structural steel against atmospheric corrosion by the use of protective coatings. Part 1: Paint coatings
ISO 9223 – Corrosion of metals and alloys – Corrosivity of atmospheres – Classification, determination and estimation
5. The corrosion rates for the first year of exposure for the different corrosivity categories of Aluminium are determined by the following standard:
ISO 9223 – Corrosion of metals and alloys – Corrosivity of atmospheres – Classification, determination and estimation
