  • High-solids polyester coating, using two 6-inch diameter Ransburg discs rotating at speeds up to 30,000 RPM

PACKAGING / SHIPPING

A product is only as good as the quality of its packing techniques because damage can occur when proper steps are not taken to secure it. At Patrick, we oversee and maintain our own packaging and shipping facilities, complete with our company delivery fleet. An experienced management team inspects every shipment to make sure it is packaged to arrive at your receiving location in good condition.
