What makes the new coating line integrated by Euro Panel Products Ltd the most advanced in India, and how does it contribute to improved efficiency and reduced dependency on pre-coated coil inventories?

Rajesh: Our new coating line is truly a game-changer. It’s the first fully continuous “3Coat 2Bake” process in India, designed to deliver unparalleled precision and quality. What makes it stand out is its ability to eliminate the need for pre-coated coil inventories entirely. This means we’ve streamlined operations, reduced lead times, and minimized material waste—all while gaining more flexibility in production. The result? A leaner and far more efficient production process.

Can you explain the “three-coat two-bake continuous processing” technology, including its advantages over previous methods, and the role of software or digital systems for process automation?

Rajesh: Absolutely. The “three-coat two-bake” process involves applying three layers of coating, each cured at two separate baking stages. This method ensures an impeccable surface finish, exceptional durability, and consistent colour quality. What takes it to the next level is the automation—advanced software drives the entire process, from coating application to curing. This reduces human intervention, minimizes errors, and gives us the ability to scale production effortlessly. It’s a perfect balance of technology and efficiency.

How do the technological advancements in this new coating line enable a 75% reduction in delivery time, enhance production through the accumulator feature, improve resource utilization, and reduce man-hours?

Rajesh: The accumulator feature is one of my personal favourites—it allows the line to run continuously, even during coil changes, which means no downtime. This has a huge impact on production efficiency. Along with that, better resource utilization and more streamlined workflows mean we need fewer man-hours to achieve the same—or even better—results. All of these elements combined have helped us cut delivery times by 75%. It’s a win-win for us and our customers.

In what ways does the integration of this advanced coating line allow Euro Panel Products Ltd to offer an infinite range of customization and support in-house R&D for new textures and designs?

Rajesh: Customization is where this coating line truly shines. It gives us the ability to create an endless variety of colours, textures, and finishes, tailored exactly to what our clients want. On top of that, our R&D team now has the tools to experiment with innovative designs and textures. It’s not just about keeping up with the industry—it’s about staying ahead and setting trends.

How do these innovations in the coating line impact Euro Panel Products Ltd’s overall production process and product offerings?

Rajesh: In one word: transformative. This coating line has completely redefined how we work. It’s streamlined our processes, boosted quality, and expanded our range of products. Customers now get products that are not only durable and high-quality but also aesthetically diverse. It’s a step forward in fulfilling our vision of leading the ACP industry and consistently exceeding customer expectations.
