What Is PVDF Color Coated Aluminum Coil?

MESCO PVDF color coated aluminum coil is a continuous coil-coated aluminum sheet using a fluorocarbon (PVDF) resin topcoat over a corrosion-resistant primer. The PVDF top coat provides outstanding color retention, chalk resistance, and weather durability for outdoor architectural applications such as roofing, cladding, curtain walls, and composite panels.

The aluminum substrate (alloys AA1050, AA1060, AA3003, AA3004, AA5052) is cleaned, chemically pre-treated, primed, and then coated with a PVDF topcoat on the front side and a protective back coat on the reverse. Coils are produced on a continuous coil coating line, then cured in a precision-controlled oven.

Key Features

ASTM-Grade Weather Resistance

PVDF top coat passes 2000 h OUVA-340 UV aging and 1000 h salt spray. Color stability under extreme sun, coastal, and industrial atmospheres.

Excellent Color Retention

Chalking grade ≤ 1 after 2000 h ASTM G154 cycle. Long-term gloss retention for architectural facades and roofing.

Easy Fabrication

1T T-bend and 9 J reverse impact ratings allow bending, roll-forming, stamping, and profiling without paint peel or cracking.

Custom RAL Colors

Wide RAL color range plus custom matching. Small MOQ for special colors. Substrate alloy and temper selectable per project.

Lightweight & Recyclable

Aluminum substrate weighs about one-third of equivalent steel. 100 percent recyclable with no loss of properties.

Stable Lead Times

3000 tons monthly capacity. Slitting, cut-to-length, and protective film services available on the same line.

Production Process

01

Substrate Inspection

Incoming aluminum coils verified for alloy grade, temper, thickness tolerance, and surface quality before release.

02

Cleaning & Pre-Treatment

Alkaline degreasing, water rinse, and chrome-free conversion coating for paint adhesion and corrosion resistance.

03

Primer Coating

5 micron corrosion-resistant primer applied by precision reverse roller coater on both sides.

04

PVDF Top Coat

20 to 22 micron PVDF top coat applied continuously. Controlled viscosity ensures smooth uniform finish.

05

Oven Curing

Multi-zone curing oven with precise peak metal temperature control guarantees full cross-linking of the coating.

06

Slitting & Packing

Cut to requested width, cut-to-length, protective film applied, and packed in seaworthy export packaging.

Typical Applications

Architectural Roofing

Standing seam roofing, trapezoidal sheets, and tile-press profiles for warehouses, stadiums, and airports.

Curtain Wall Cladding

Composite panels and cassette cladding systems for high-rise commercial and cultural buildings.

Composite Panels

Top skin of aluminum composite panels (ACP) for facade decoration and signage back panels.

Interior Ceiling

Linear ceilings, baffles, and decorative panels for airports, malls, and transit stations.

Advertising Signs

Light boxes, outdoor billboards, and signage requiring long outdoor color retention.

Rainware & Gutters

Pre-painted aluminum gutters, downspouts, and roof edge trims for residential projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between PVDF and PE coating?

PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) is a fluorocarbon resin offering superior UV and weather resistance, ideal for outdoor facades with 15 to 20 year color retention. PE (polyester) is more economical and used for indoor or short term outdoor applications. MESCO recommends PVDF for projects requiring long-term color stability and warranty.

Which aluminum alloy should I choose for roofing?

AA3003 and AA3004 are the most common alloys for roofing and cladding thanks to their balanced strength and formability. AA5052 is recommended for marine or highly corrosive environments. AA1050 / AA1060 suit decorative and ceiling use where deep drawing is required.

What coil thickness range can MESCO supply?

Standard coil thickness ranges from 0.18 mm to 1.5 mm, with coil widths up to 1800 mm. Cut-to-length sheets up to 6000 mm available. Custom tolerances and slit widths on request.

Can MESCO match my custom RAL color?

Yes. Send a RAL number or physical color sample; our lab will prepare a lab dip within 5 to 7 days. For weather-resistant outdoor projects, we may recommend a substitute color with similar hue but proven UV durability.

How long is the lead time for bulk orders?

Standard RAL colors in standard thickness ship in 15 to 25 days. Custom colors require an extra 7 days for lab matching. Express production available for urgent project needs.
