ColorCote - Pre-painted metal substrates for use in roofing and cladding

At Pacific Coilcoaters we place a major focus on caring for the environment. We are proud to incorporate sustainability into our everyday business practices. Using metal for roofing and cladding provides longlasting, durable, and recyclable energy-efficient products. Our job includes making sure that we look after the environment while producing these materials. Preparing metal substrate for painting uses an immense amount of water. The metal substrate is pre-cleaned and rinsed, and then cooled once it leaves the oven. In 2015, this process used about 3 Olympic-sized swimming pools of water per month. A major engineering project in 2017 focused on improvements to reticulation.

The result?
Continuous improvements meant that by 2018, our water usage had decreased to approximately one half of an Olympic sized swimming pool per month, yielding massive water savings and reduction in expense. Furthermore, the decrease in water usage means that we now have the ability to look to source all the water needed through rain water harvesting, putting us on track to becoming completely water self-sufficient. This is just one example of the steps we consistently take in assessing our products and procedures from an environmental standpoint. An ongoing commitment to the environment is reflected in continuous improvements to systems and sustainability.
