Press release: August 15th 2007.
Plastika has started building a spraying line for painting plastic parts.
Plastika has started building a spraying line for painting plastic parts. The renowned German firm of Afotek, which specializes in painting plastics, was chosen to supply the technology. When designing the project, we applied the latest findings of this technology, particularly for painting interior parts, both for highly demanding applications for the automotive industry as well as for many other branches of industry. In this way Plastika is following the general trend of the market’s needs as regards boosting the quality of plastic parts while offering a very wide range of options in terms of new designer concepts of the final products.

The spraying line will primarily be designed to use single or dual-component water-soluble paint systems, meaning that Plastika is also playing its part in meeting the company’s ecological commitments.
The spraying line will be installed in the new hall on the existing Plastika site. The hall must comply with very high requirements regarding the quality of the working environment so as to ensure that painted surfaces are of high quality, productivity is high, and scrap rates are kept to a minimum. The new building will also include a storage hall with a capacity of around 1 500 pallets. The fittings and design of the store respects the storage requirements both for virgin parts as well as painted parts in an environment which will help to comply with the demanding quality specifications.
Paint-shop ground
Investment in the spraying line is one of the steps in Plastika's strategy to become a comprehensive supplier of top-class plastic components.
