What Is a Powder Coating Booth & Why It Matters
A powder coating booth is the core workspace where powder is sprayed onto your metal parts. It directly affects coating quality, operator safety and powder cost.
A well-designed booth should capture overspray, provide stable airflow, protect operators and make cleaning and color changes as fast as possible. At Ketu, we design the booth together with the complete line – not as a standalone box.
- Clean, controlled environment for stable powder application and film build.
- Balanced airflow to avoid dust, turbulence and back-ionization defects.
- Efficient powder recovery to reduce powder waste and housekeeping cost.
- Good lighting and ergonomics for operators or robots to access all surfaces.

Integrated Into a Complete Powder Coating Line
A powder coating booth is never working alone. We design your booth together with pretreatment, drying, conveyor or racks and curing oven – so there are no hidden bottlenecks.
- • Distance and flow from pretreatment / drying to the booth.
- • Part spacing, hanging method and working height for operators.
- • Transfer from booth to curing oven without touching the fresh powder layer.
- • Safety interlocks between booth, conveyor and oven if required.
