Coatings trusted to perform when it matters most
Trusted protection for defence equipment — coatings that meet the highest UK standards for performance, concealment and durability, with seamless supply to both the UK and EU.
Reliability in the Field
In defence applications, coatings are mission-critical. They must protect equipment exposed to extreme heat, abrasion, moisture and corrosion — while meeting the most exacting technical and regulatory standards.
Our powder coatings are proven in service environments where reliability, consistency and compliance are non-negotiable.
Defence-Approved Performance
HMG Powder Coatings manufactures and supplies finishes that conform to UK Defence Standard DEF STAN 80-122, delivering high-performance protection for military hardware and support equipment.
Each product is developed, tested and certified to meet the rigorous requirements of the UK Ministry of Defence and its supply chain.
Providing exceptional corrosion resistance, impact strength and UV stability, our coatings extend the life of critical assets while maintaining a professional, compliant finish.
We also supply a specialist range of infrared-reflecting camouflage coatings that comply with DEF STAN 00-23.
Designed to reduce detectability and enhance operational concealment, these coatings deliver precise spectral reflectance, colour accuracy and durability across a variety of substrates — ensuring dependable performance in demanding environments.
Strategic Advantage — Serving Both UK and EU Markets
Based in Northern Ireland, HMG Powder Coatings occupies a unique strategic position for defence customers operating across the UK and EU.
This allows us to supply dual-use controlled goods to both regions without export licences, simplifying logistics, shortening lead times, and ensuring continuous compliance and supply.
Partnership and Technical Assurance
We work closely with contractors, specifiers and maintenance teams to advise on product selection, application and documentation.
With lean manufacturing and full batch traceability, every coating meets the same uncompromising standards — giving defence customers total confidence in quality, durability and continuity of supply.
