Powder coating of kitchen hoods and other household appliances

The Italian company Fratelli Gionchetti di Matelica (fgm) has about a century of experience in the production of metal furniture for libraries, archives, as well as customized solutions suitable for different types of environments, combining functionality and elegance. The economic crisis between 2013 and 2014 has pushed the company to diversify their activities, starting by carrying out coating operations for third parties first, using the plant designed for their product. As the demand for color changes increased, they installed a special booth provided by WAGNER. The target was mainly the coating of kitchen hoods and other household appliances.
