Why transport pallets in the automotive industry should be coated with Pulron
Why thermoplastic coating is relevant for automotive applications
Conventional hard coatings protect the metal substrate. Pulron thermoplastic coating, however, helps protect the logistics process itself as well. On pallets and metal transport fixtures, it creates a durable polymer surface that provides better resistance to impact, moisture, chemical exposure, and long-term mechanical wear. This is a major advantage in returnable logistics systems and when handling sensitive components.
Gentler contact with parts in automotive logistics
A thermoplastic surface is tough and less brittle than conventional hard coatings. It helps reduce the risk of scratches and minor damage when parts come into contact with a pallet or transport frame.
Higher surface durability in repeated pallet use
Pulron is designed for long-term protection of metal surfaces even in demanding service conditions. It resists corrosion, UV radiation, low temperatures, and chemicals, which is especially important for returnable packaging and pallets used in intensive operation.

Electrostatic application of thermoplastic powder coating
A major advantage is that Pulron can be applied by electrostatic spraying, using a process similar to that of conventional powder coatings. This makes implementation easier wherever an efficient, accurate, and reliable surface-finishing solution for metal parts is required.
Thermoplastic coating as a solution for automotive logistics
ICOSA s.r.o. has long specialized in thermoplastic powder coatings in the Czech and Slovak markets, including solutions for automotive applications. For transport pallets and metal logistics components, this means a surface finish that helps extend the service life of the packaging system and reduce the risk of part damage during handling.
Are you looking for a surface treatment for pallets and metal transport elements that lasts longer than a conventional coating while also helping to protect transported parts?
Pulron thermoplastic powder coating from ICOSA s.r.o. offers a solution for demanding automotive logistics in both the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
