Liquid Coating Plant in Kenya
SEW Surface Coating Pvt. Ltd. designs, manufactures and installs liquid coating (painting) plants for manufacturers in Kenya. Every plant is built at our own works in Pune, India, then export-packed and shipped to Kenya, with erection and commissioning support from our engineers.
A liquid coating plant applies wet paint by spraying or dipping and then cures it in an oven. We build dry booths, side draft and downdraft water-wall booths, dip painting tanks and paint curing ovens with solvent exhaust, along with the pretreatment and conveyor the line needs.
- Dry & Water Wall Booths
- Dip Painting Tanks
- Paint Curing Ovens
- Exported to Kenya
Liquid Coating Plants for Kenya's Industry
Kenya is East Africa's leading manufacturing economy. Nairobi's Industrial Area, Athi River EPZ, Thika, Ruiru and Mombasa host steel, roofing, furniture, electrical, automotive assembly and agricultural equipment makers.
In Kenya, demand for liquid coating plants comes mainly from steel structure fabricators, furniture and storage makers and agricultural equipment makers. Liquid paint is still the right choice for heavy fabrications, large structures, special colours and parts that cannot take the cure temperature of powder. A well-designed booth captures overspray safely, keeps the painter's area clean and gives an even finish.
Local fabricators increasingly coat in-house instead of importing finished products, which is driving demand for coating and pretreatment plants.
Types of Liquid Painting Booths We Supply in Kenya
Dip Painting Tank
The conveyor carries the article through the paint tank for the required time. The article is coated and then cured in the paint curing oven.
Best for: Simple-shaped parts in high volume where a uniform primer or single coat is needed.
Side Draft Water Wall Booth
An MS/SS panel enclosure with a constant-flow water wall behind the article. Overspray paint flows down with the water into the washing chamber while air is drawn from the side. The operator stands outside the booth.
Best for: Conveyorised and batch type plants.
Downdraft Water Wall Booth
Air is drawn from the top to the bottom of the booth, with a constant-flow water wall at the floor. Overspray flows with the water into the washing chamber. The operator walks inside the booth around the article.
Best for: Heavy articles and large fabrications.
Dry Booth
Recommended where the painting workload is low or the components are very small. It uses mechanical filters, which can be cleaned and reused, or replaceable paper filters.
Best for: Low volumes, small parts and medium articles on an overhead conveyor.
Paint Curing Ovens
The paint curing oven is an enclosed, insulated chamber with air-circulating blowers and a heating system. A solvent evaporation exhaust system maintains the solvent LEL level for safe operation.
Batch Type Oven
Painted articles are loaded on a trolley and pushed inside. After the baking schedule, the doors are opened and the trolley is taken out.
Best for: Mixed jobs and heavy fabrications.
Conveyorised Conventional Oven
The conveyor carries articles through the chamber for the required time, so parts come out cured continuously.
Best for: Continuous painting lines.
Conveyorised Camel Back Oven
Entry and exit are cut out parallel to the ground so hot air stays inside and heat loss is reduced.
Best for: Lines where fuel saving is a priority.
Equipment Supplied With the Liquid Coating Plant
Pretreatment Plant
Dip or spray pretreatment cleans and phosphates the metal surface so the coating adheres well and resists corrosion.
Water Drying Oven
Dries parts completely after the final rinse, since moisture left on the surface spoils the finish.
Pressurization Zone
Fresh air filtered in two or three stages is delivered around the booth to keep dust off the components.
Transporter System
PLC-controlled transporter that moves jobs through the tanks on a programmed cycle, giving priority to critical tanks.

Liquid Coating Plant in Kenya – Frequently Asked Questions
Do you export liquid coating plants to Kenya?
Yes. SEW Surface Coating Pvt. Ltd. manufactures liquid coating plants at its factory in Pune, India, and exports them to customers in Kenya, with erection and commissioning support from our engineers.
Which painting booth should I choose?
A dry booth suits low volumes and small parts. A side draft water wall booth suits conveyorised and batch plants where the operator stands outside. A downdraft water wall booth suits heavy articles, with the operator walking around the part inside the booth.
How does a water wall booth work?
A constant flow of water runs down the wall behind the article. Overspray paint is drawn into the water and carried to the washing chamber, keeping the booth and exhaust clean.
Why does a paint curing oven need solvent exhaust?
Liquid paints release solvent vapour while curing. The exhaust system keeps solvent concentration below the lower explosive limit (LEL) for safe operation.
Can you supply pretreatment with the painting plant?
Yes. We supply the pretreatment plant, water drying oven, painting booth, curing oven and conveyor as a complete line.
How is the plant shipped to Kenya?
The plant is fabricated at our Pune works, export-packed and shipped from Nhava Sheva (JNPT) port near Mumbai to Mombasa. Our engineers can travel to supervise erection and commissioning.
