Extruded from high-grade 6000-series alloy billet, pre-treated with zero-VOC chromate-free chemistry, and coated with ultra-durable thermosetting powders built for New Zealand's severe atmospheric environments.
New Zealand’s unique geographical location exposes exterior building components and marine hardware to exceptionally aggressive environmental factors: intensive UV radiation due to high atmospheric clarity, coupled with severe sea-salt spray in coastal Zones D and E (as classified under NZS 3604).
As a specialized Custom OEM Powder Coating Factory and Exporter for New Zealand, our production lines are engineered around the exact requirements of AS/NZS 3715 (Metal finishing — Thermoset powder coatings for architectural applications). Standard commercial powder coating processes often fail prematurely in Kiwi coastal urban centers like Auckland, Tauranga, Wellington, and Christchurch due to filiform corrosion and UV-induced chalking. Our multi-stage pretreatment and electrostatic coating protocols guarantee long-term adhesion and color retention.
We utilize advanced SurTec and TKG Huchem zirconium/titanium chemical conversion baths. This generates a dense, nanometer-scale passivating layer over the raw extruded aluminum profile, offering superior salt fog corrosion protection compared to traditional alkaline etching alone.
Whether you require standard 6000-series alloy structural angles, curtain wall dry-hanging brackets, marine-grade angle hatches, or decorative sublimated timber-look cladding trims, every profile undergoes rigorous quality verification before export packaging.
From commercial facades engineered for Wellington’s extreme wind zones to marine hardware operating in the Hauraki Gulf, discover how our custom extrusions and powder-coated profiles excel in local conditions.
NZ Focus: Auckland & Wellington Commercial Towers
Our 6000-series alloy brackets and extrusions support dry-hanging stone and glass unitized facade systems. Engineered to accommodate inter-story drift during seismic events and wind pressures exceeding Ultimate Limit State (ULS) thresholds set by NZS 1170.2.
NZ Focus: Sub-Alpine & Coastal Housing Projects
Powder-coated L-shape trims, square angles, and wall protection corner profiles designed for clean exterior flashings and interior soffits. Thermally stable, resisting thermal expansion stress under New Zealand’s intense solar irradiance.
NZ Focus: Boat Builders & Marine Infrastructure
Exposed aluminum angle fittings, boat corners, and precision sampling hatches treated with thick marine-grade powder coatings. Withstands continuous exposure to seawater splash, direct salt spray, and abrasive diesel/oil fuel contact without blistering.
NZ Focus: Sustainable Architectural Louvers & Pergolas
Sublimated wood texture coatings applied over a durable powder base. Delivers the aesthetic warmth of Native Totara or Teak timber with zero rot, low flammability, and zero ongoing varnish maintenance required under NZBC Clause B2 (Durability).
NZ Focus: Agricultural & Fuel Depot Facilities
Angle gauge hatches with custom elastomer gasketing and precision latching mechanisms. Designed for chemical tightness and leak-proof measurement in regional storage depots across Canterbury and Waikato.
NZ Focus: Local Fabricators & Window Assemblers
In-house CNC cutting, bending, punching, and mitering prior to powder coating. Eliminates post-coating raw metal exposures, ensuring end-to-end corrosion protection for ready-to-assemble job lots.
Navigating changing building regulations, sustainability goals, and rigorous performance testing for imported architectural components.

Many suppliers outsource their powder coating to third-party coaters, resulting in compromised pre-treatment quality, batch-to-batch color variation, and split liability. Our integrated plant operates extrusion, CNC machining, chemical pre-treatment, and automated powder coating under one single roof and unified quality management system.

Yes. Our architectural powder coating processes meet and exceed AS/NZS 3715 requirements. We utilize certified thermosetting powders (AAMA 2603, 2604, and 2605 formulations) over chromate-free multi-stage pre-treatment, ensuring verified film build (60–80 microns), adhesion, and salt spray resistance.
We regularly ship FCL (Full Container Load) and LCL (Less Container Load) consignments to major New Zealand sea freight hubs including Port of Auckland, Port of Tauranga, Lyttelton (Christchurch), and CentrePort (Wellington). All orders are dispatched with full commercial documentation, packing lists, mill test certificates, and ISPM 15 compliant heat-treated wooden crates for seamless Biosecurity New Zealand clearance.
Absolutely. Our color-matching laboratory can duplicate popular Australasian architectural shades (such as Matt Black, O'Keefe Grey, Pearl White, Ironsand, and Titanium) as well as the full RAL color spectrum. We supply physical powder-coated aluminum sample panels for your engineering sign-off prior to mass production.
We extrude primarily in 6000-series alloys. For standard architectural trims, window frames, and decorative L-angles, we utilize 6063-T5. For high-load structural curtain wall brackets, marine angles, and heavy-duty mullions, we recommend 6063-T6 or 6061-T6 for higher yield strength and tensile durability.
Custom die tooling is completed within 10 to 14 days from CAD drawing approval. First-article samples are extruded, powder-coated, and air-couriered to New Zealand within 5 working days for client review. Once approved, bulk extrusion and finishing typical lead times range from 15 to 22 days.
Every individual profile is wrapped with protective PE film (custom branded or plain). Profiles are then bundled with protective interleaving paper, film-wrapped, and packed into steel-strapped, fully enclosed wooden cases designed to withstand container shipping and forklift handling at NZ freight depots.
Yes. We provide comprehensive precision fabrication services including CNC cutting, drilling, punching, bending, mitering, and robotic welding. Performing these operations prior to powder coating ensures that all cut edges, holes, and joints receive full pre-treatment and coating coverage, preventing edge corrosion.
Our standard MOQ for custom dies is 500 kg per profile section. For standard stocked extrusion dies (such as standard L-angles, square tubes, and wall trims), lower MOQs starting from 300 kg apply. We offer consolidated container loading for multi-profile project orders.
