Who are we?

Powerstrip Industries was established in 1991 as a facility to fully recondition transformer cooling radiators. Operating from a state of the art plant at 7 Gabador Place, in Mt Wellington (Auckland), we employ modern systems, in line with common practices overseas. Our services have expanded to incorporate the stripping and refinishing of all types of metals, extrusions and components.

Powerstrip now has 17 plus years of experience in stripping and refinishing the exterior surfaces of transformer radiators and in flushing and cleaning them internally. Our staff have a wide background of expertise in the heavy duty coatings and engineering fields. Powerstrip’s clients include major energy contractors and providers New Zealand wide.

 

Our Facilities

Basically we can divide our stripping business into two categories – aluminium and steel. Jobs come in all shapes and sizes and our tanks can accommodate items up to 6 metres long and a metre wide. Sometimes oversize items can be accommodated in different tanks or by utilising different stripping methods, so if in doubt, please ask us about what you have.


Examples of the items we strip paint and power-coating from are bicycle frames, car doors and guards etc., engine components, radiators and intercoolers, store shelving and racking, refrigeration panels, paint-line jigs, aluminium extrusions and so on. Virtually anything made from metal can be stripped of paint in our tanks with our chemical dip immersion process. We can also remove the likes of ink, grease, dirt, oil residue, carbon-build, galvanizing and lacquer.

If you have something unusual, you only need to enquire about it and we can always trial the item to see whether one of the variety of stripping processes we have available would be successful with it. Powerstrip Industries’ policy is, and always has been, that if we can’t strip your product then there will be no charge.

Customer service is a priority for us and we pride ourselves on our workmanship and quality of performance. We value our customer’s feedback and endeavour to always meet time constraints, although sometimes a job may take a bit longer than anticipated because of the nature of the coating being removed and, if the base metal is steel, the degree of corrosion present, which determine the time an item must spend in our stripping and acid baths respectively.
