A finish controlled in-house.

Refinishing is where a remanufactured system earns the line "indistinguishable from new." Roberts runs its own advanced baked-on powder coating process — alongside painting and staining — for a durable, attractive, and long-lasting finish applied right here in Liverpool.

What the finishing line does

Durable, attractive, and built to last.

Once a part has been dismantled, inspected, repaired, or replaced, it is cleaned and refinished in-house. Powder coating is one of three finishing methods we run on our own line.

01
Powder · Coat

Advanced baked-on powder coating

Our own advanced baked-on powder coating process produces a durable, attractive, and long-lasting finish on the steel components that carry a remanufactured system.

02
Paint · Stain

Painting and staining

Where a part calls for it, we also paint and stain in-house — so a refinished frame, work surface, or cabinet leaves on one consistent standard rather than a near-miss.

03
Low · Emitting

LEED-compliant finishes

We use LEED-compliant low-emitting paints, sprays, solvents, and glues, so the finish supports the indoor-air-quality goals of a green office plan rather than working against them.

Where it fits in the process

The step that makes it read as new.

Powder coating is the Refinish stage of the Roberts remanufacturing process. By the time a part reaches the finishing line it has already been completely dismantled, every component inspected, and anything beyond repair replaced with a piece equal to or better than the original.

Cleaning and refinishing locally — including painting, staining, or our baked-on powder coating process — is what turns a sound but worn frame back into a surface that reads as new and holds up like it.

Because the finishing line is ours, finish quality is controlled in-house rather than outsourced — on the same parts that go on to carry a full warranty.

01Clean and prepare

Every part is cleaned and prepared in-house before any finish is applied.

02Refinish

Painting, staining, or our advanced baked-on powder coating process, for a durable and long-lasting finish.

03Low-emitting materials

LEED-compliant low-emitting paints, sprays, solvents, and glues used throughout the fabrication process.

Why it matters

Finish quality, not left to chance.

A remanufactured Steelcase or Herman Miller system is only as convincing as its finish. Running powder coating in-house means the durability and appearance of every refinished part are set by Roberts rather than left to an outside shop.

It is also part of how Roberts keeps furniture out of the landfill: a worn but structurally sound steel frame can be stripped, refinished, and put back into service instead of being scrapped — the kind of closed-loop reuse that anchors "Built to outlast new."
