• Powder Coat
• ACROGUARD^® - High Performance Powder Coat
• REVELATION® Powder Coat

As a standard, all Alpro products are finished with a factory applied powder coat.  Alpro products are coated after fabrication, which guarantees total surface coverage.  Total surface coverage means maximum finish performance and protection from corrosion.  These durable finishes are available in a variety of standard or custom matched color options.

Powder coat finishes are comprised of acrylic and polyester, and the electrostatic application offers many advantages over solvent based liquid coatings. Dry powder coating emits virtually no volatile organic compounds (VOC) into the atmosphere during application.

The newest addition to our diverse coating options is a revolutionary, polyester based powder coat finish called ACROGUARD. The durability of ACROGUARD makes it ideal for airports, schools, hospitals, malls, or other high abuse areas. ACROGUARD is primarily applied to products like column covers or wall panels.

REVELATION is a progressive finish technology that provides unlimited expression.  Natural surfaces such as wood, stone, and architectural metal finishes can be replicated without the economic burden or design constraints of natural materials.  Just imagine accomplishing your design objectives while conserving our natural environment...REVELATION by Gordon is totally GREEN by Design !!

Environmental Policy

Gordon values its reputation for actively pursuing aggressive environmental policies. Gordon utilizes vendors who share these same values and whose processes employ the use of recyclable components. Likewise, a strong recycling initiative prevails in all Gordon manufacturing processes.

Extruded Aluminum is the principle substrate that is utilized in manufacturing of our ceiling and wall system products. We annually purchase over 4 million pounds of aluminum extrusions. Our primary supplier for this material currently uses 66% recycled aluminum materials. This material is composed of 33% post consumer and 33% post industrial content which meet the requirements for both LEED^®1 (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Credits MR 4.1 & 4.2 – Recycled Content. Other systems components such as aluminum ceiling panels are sourced from mills that use approximately 50% recycled materials. 

In addition to what we purchase, the excess drop materials that naturally occur in the manufacturing processes are returned to our suppliers for recycling.

Our in-house finishing facility uses only water-soluble / biodegradable materials yielding no VOC’s. All waste from this process is rated safe for discharge to our city storm sewer system which is ultimately delivered to our city waste water treatment plant with no adverse impact to the environment. No hazardous materials are used in this or any other process within our facility.

Our Environmental Policy is embodied in our Core Values, Beliefs, and Principles. It is the responsibility of every Gordon employee to continually identify new and expanded opportunities to not only recycle, but to reduce the root causes of waste.
