This week’s quiz is from How specifying powder coatings contributes to sustainable design[2]. While powder coatings are widely recognized for their durability and vibrant color options, fewer design professionals fully grasp the differences in formulation, application methods, and performance classifications. From exploring thermosetting chemistry and electrostatic spray systems to evaluating FGIA standards and sustainability advantages, this in-depth guide highlights why architectural-grade powder coatings are a smart, resilient, and eco-conscious choice. Read on, then take the quiz to test your knowledge of powder coating fundamentals and specification strategies.
