By responding so quickly to our needs, Russell Finex helps us respond to the marketplace. That’s key in a market as competitive as ours. Compared to our previous screeners, we’ve doubled capacity in half the space. The units last and last -- we’re still using our original 15-year old screener in mass production.

Understanding the coatings industry
For over 75 years, Russell Finex have been serving the coatings industry with market-leading sieving, separation and filtration solutions. Whether dealing with decorative, protective or product-enhancing surface coatings, we know how to help improve your coating application.
Every type of coating, however it is manufactured, needs to be filtered or screened at some stage to guarantee its quality, in terms of producing the intended final finish. We have dealt with a great deal of different coating products from solvent borne liquid paint to powder coatings, from hot resins to bismuth coating, from ferrous coatings to emulsions, each with their own characteristics.
We have worked closely with hundreds of coating companies over the years, and have built up an impressive reference list of major coating customers. You can also view case studies about our work in the coating industry to understand just how well we know the market.
Serving a variety of sub-industries
Different types of coatings require different filtration and separation solutions. Below is a list of sub-industries we have worked with most often, but we have experience with many other types of applications so please Contact Us if you have a specific process to discuss.
Recommended machines
While our sieves, separators and filters are versatile and can adapt to many processes, below is a selection of machines that are the most popular among coating companies.
Many factors influence which machine is best for you, including particle size, desired flow rates, size restrictions, etc. The best way to be sure which machine best suits your application is always to Contact Us.
