Invest in a Rust-Proof Finish for Your Pergola

When investing in a Pergolux pergola or other outdoor structures, the finish matters just as much as the frame. That's why Pergolux uses AkzoNobel® powder coating – a premium paint finish engineered to withstand Australia’s harshest weather conditions without rusting.


What Makes AkzoNobel Powder Coating Different?

Unlike traditional liquid paints, powder coating creates a harder, more durable finish that bonds directly to the metal surface. AkzoNobel, a global leader in coating technology, has developed a formulation specifically designed for extreme environments – making it perfect for Australian backyards.


Rust-Proof Protection for Aussie Weather

Australian weather is tough on outdoor structures. Scorching UV rays, coastal salt spray, heavy rain, and extreme temperatures can damage them. Standard paint finishes may crack or peel, exposing metal to moisture and causing rust.

Pergolux’s AkzoNobel powder coating provides:

  • Superior corrosion resistance – The thick, uniform coating prevents moisture penetration, even in humid coastal areas.

  • UV stability – Keeps your pergola looking new for years.

  • Salt spray protection – Essential for coastal homes where salt-laden air accelerates rust formation.

  • Impact resistance – Resists chips and scratches that could compromise rust protection.


The Powder Coating Advantage

Powder coating isn’t just about rust prevention. This application method also provides environmental and aesthetic benefits:

  • Eco-friendly process with no harmful solvents or VOCs

  • Consistent, uniform coverage without drips or runs

  • Wide colour range with excellent colour retention

  • Low maintenance, requiring only occasional cleaning

Long-Term Value for Australian Homeowners

Rust isn’t just unsightly – it compromises structural integrity and can lead to costly repairs. Choosing a Pergolux pergola with AkzoNobel powder coating means:

  • Decades of rust-free performance

  • Maintained property value and kerb appeal

  • Minimal maintenance requirements

  • Peace of mind through all weather conditions

Whether you’re in tropical Queensland, coastal NSW, or the arid outback, your Pergolux pergola will maintain its pristine finish without rust, no matter what nature throws at it.
