"I couldn't be in this business without Plaforization.”

“The dedicated Carpenter Chemicals team gave us invaluable assistance in designing our Plaforization pretreatment system.”

“We tried for a year to disprove Plaforization™ before we decided to use it. Plaforization™ really works.”

Matt S.
Midwestern Manufacturer of Safes

“The product cleans and treats at room temperature, eliminating the cost of natural gas and time for preheating chemicals.”

“We thought this would be a good return on our investment, with the quality of cleaning as well as the environmental benefits. No water is needed. No heat is needed. There’s no waste. That’s the key.”

Connie D.
Northeastern Manufacturer of Wind Chimes

“We have been using Plaforization since the spring of 2004 and found that the adhesion of our liquid and powder paints is dramatically improved. Our parts rejections due to poor adhesion are a thing of the past.”

“Ecophor A447 has performed well, meeting or exceeding our required performance specifications.”

“… in the village where our business is located they do not currently have any sanitary sewer. So disposal of a cleaning material created a real problem for us. Using [Plaforization] has enabled us to eliminate all of the disposal headache and expense.”

“When we first looked into pretreatment, Plaforization™ seemed too good to be true. But designing and fabricating a system was a snap because the system is so simple. Since starting to work with Plaforization™, I no longer have to rework any parts. And the powder bonds so tightly to the surface that it's very hard to remove even with a stripper. The only maintenance in our Plaforization™ system is filtration and adding chemical to keep the level up. I recommend it every chance I get.”

Steve B.
Midwestern Powdercoater

“We were successful in getting Government approval to replace the required mil-spec processes and materials (iron phosphate/primer/enamel topcoat) with commercial processes and materials (Plaforization™ and epoxy powder coating). Test coupons are treated and coated with each batch of product processed on our painting line. The coupons are scribed to expose bare metal and then subjected to a 120-hour salt spray test. In three years of operation we have had no rejections. The Plaforization™ material has performed as advertised and the Carpenter Chemicals organization has provided excellent service through installation, start-up, and ongoing production.”

“Our company ensures that the quality of our products reaches beyond industry standards by using breakthrough manufacturing processes, superior equipment and materials. the high precision molds used to manufacture the parts of the luminaires guarantee high quality and consistency of our products. In the finishing process we use the latest technology of Plaforization™ along with polyester powder coating. All metallic parts are pre-treated using an environmentally friendly organic phosphating technology (Plaforization™) before a polyester powder coating is electrostatically applied. Plaforization™ increases paint adhesion, improves protection against corrosion, and produces no greenhouse gas.”
