Solid Mechanical and Engineering
Partnering with Arkote for Quality Powder Coating
Overview
Solid Mechanical and Engineering is a trusted provider of mechanical, engineering, and fabrication services. Known for their hands-on approach and dedication to quality, they manage projects from concept through to completion. However, when it came to powder coating, they faced a challenge: finding a partner who could consistently deliver high-quality finishes, meet tight deadlines, and maintain clear, responsive communication throughout every stage of the process.
Logistics were another critical consideration. Solid Mechanical needed a supplier that could support efficient delivery through assistance with transport and packaging. While many providers offered one or two of these features, few could deliver all of them consistently.
That’s when they discovered Arkote.
The Solution
After evaluating several options, Arkote quickly stood out. We provided a comprehensive powder coating solution featuring reliable quality, fast turnaround times, and complimentary transport services. What truly set us apart was our collaborative approach.
Arkote worked closely with Solid Mechanical to optimise packaging and transport methods, reducing handling issues and streamlining the entire delivery process. This level of cooperation elevated the relationship from a standard supplier-client setup into a true partnership.
We became a trusted surface coating partner, playing a key role in helping Solid Mechanical maintain high standards and meet project deadlines.

The Results
Since partnering with Arkote, Solid Mechanical has seen noticeable improvements. Deliveries are now smoother and more efficient, with better-organised packaging. The quality of the powder coating has remained consistently high—earning positive feedback from Solid Mechanical’s customers.
Beyond the practical benefits, the partnership has given the team greater peace of mind. With a surface coating provider in place, Solid Mechanical can focus more on their work and delivering high-quality projects on time—knowing that their finishing and logistics are in good hands.
