General Powder Coating Safety Information:
The Powder Coating Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is a comprehensive 8 page procedure outlining the safety steps for Powder coating. This SWMS covers electrostatic spray-painting/powder coating. This does not cover fluidized beds or flame spray.
The Powder Coating procedure is ready to use and is not a blank template. Simply add your company details, ABN, and include any site specific details or risks and make it specific to the task at hand.
It is then ready for printing and to be incorporated as part of your overall OHS System. The Powder Coating procedure can be used as part of your OHS inductions, for Tool box talks or tender applications.
