There are countless coating solutions available, and choosing the right one can often feel overwhelming. Getting it wrong can lead to costly mistakes, as coatings can fail for a variety of reasons—some obvious, others less so.
We recently worked with a bakery that had a frustrating experience with a previous coating supplier. At first, everything seemed fine—their baking trays were coated properly, and their products didn’t stick. Cleaning was easy, and the main purpose of the coating was achieved.
But soon after, problems began to arise. The trays were stored on a metal rack, and over time, the edges of the trays would rub against the frame. This caused the coating to wear away much faster than expected. The supplier had focused only on the immediate application but hadn’t considered how the trays would be handled and stored long-term.
This oversight left the customer frustrated and skeptical about the effectiveness of coatings in general. Many people aren’t aware that there are hundreds of different coating materials, each with unique properties suited to specific applications.
After some discussion, we were able to show them the benefits of our coating service. We took into account environmental factors and provided a more durable, wear-resistant solution. The new trays performed exceptionally well and lasted significantly longer than the previous ones.
Now, the customer has a better understanding of what a reliable coating supplier can offer. They’ve also recognized the cost savings and convenience that come with PTFE-coated baking trays.
While they did end up spending extra money on a second coating, it wasn’t a major issue. But what if the consequences were far worse?
Imagine if:
- The wrong coating on bolts made them impossible to remove when needed.
- A moving part with the wrong coating increased friction instead of reducing it.
- A critical component failed too quickly due to an unsuitable coating.
In such cases, the impact could be severe—leading to downtime, safety risks, or even equipment failure.
That’s why selecting the right coating is not just about performance—it's about preventing problems before they happen. It's especially crucial in industries where reliability and safety are top priorities.
