Part envelope and lifting
Include a dimensioned drawing, overall shipping envelope, gross weight, lift points and any areas that cannot be contacted by hooks or fixtures. A load rating does not establish oven clearance or a safe handling route.
Capabilities & Facility
Built for Production, Large Parts and Technical Coating Work
PPC combines preparation, coating, testing and logistics in one 75,000 sq. ft. Toronto facility so manufacturers can manage the complete finishing process through one production partner.
PPC has operated since 1997 and is structured around industrial work that needs repeatability, part handling, preparation discipline and documented quality control. Feasibility is confirmed from the actual part envelope, weight, substrate, specification and production volume rather than from a generic maximum-size claim.
Facility capability matrix
| Capability | PPC facility |
|---|---|
| Facility | 75,000 sq. ft. Toronto production facility |

| Surface preparation | Mechanical cleaning, abrasive blasting, stripping and chemical pretreatment |
| Pretreatment | Five-stage automatic spray wash with iron- and zinc-phosphate capability |
| Application | Electrostatic powder, fluid bed and specification-led specialty coating processes |
| Quality | In-house inspection and testing with third-party testing available when required |
| Logistics | Packaging and shipping support for qualified projects across North America |
Five-stage preparation before coating
PPC's automatic spray-wash system uses more than 1,500 spray nozzles, with chemical pretreatment selected around the substrate and performance requirement. Parts may also require stripping, mechanical cleaning or abrasive blasting before coating. The preparation route is confirmed during technical review.
Production paths
Automated production
With 2,000 linear ft. of conveyor capacity and a 2,000 lbs.-per-linear-foot rating, this path supports suitably engineered repeat components. Racking, part geometry, line loading, colour schedules and process controls are reviewed for each program.
Automated coating services →Batch & large-component work
Batch capability up to 30,000 lbs.+ and heavy-project handling up to 50,000 lbs.+ support demanding fabrications. Actual feasibility depends on dimensions, lift points, handling, preparation, oven clearance and coating specification.

Plan a large-part coating RFQ without missing a production constraint
Conveyor or batch route
Specify whether the order is a one-time fabrication, a pilot run or recurring releases. Include lot quantities, colour changes and required delivery windows so PPC can assess line scheduling versus batch handling.
Inspection and release plan
Attach the coating specification, substrate condition, target film thickness, masked surfaces, test acceptance criteria and packing requirements. Highlight threaded interfaces, welds and inaccessible recesses in the drawing.
Confirm the part against the facility
Send drawings, dimensions, weight, quantity and the governing coating specification for a technical feasibility review.
