MorFabrication is the North East's only one-stop fabricator running in-house powder coating alongside steel and stainless fabrication. Our workshop is between Newcastle, Sunderland and Durham, with daily collection and delivery across Tyne & Wear, Northumberland, County Durham and Tees Valley — and pallet courier nationwide. Parts go from cut, formed and welded into our coating booth and curing oven without ever leaving the building.
Use our powder coating as a standalone finishing service for parts manufactured elsewhere, or as the natural last step on a job we've fabricated for you. Either way you get the same finish quality, the same colour control, and the same turnaround flexibility.
We coat to recognised British and European standards (BS EN 13438 for galvanised substrates, BS EN 12206-1 for aluminium, ISO 12944 for atmospheric corrosion on architectural steelwork) and cross-reference every RAL Classic colour against Interpon and Axalta Alesta powder ranges. If you already know the colour you want, browse our interactive 3D RAL colour chart and request a quote with your shortlist.
Bespoke balustrades, balcony frames, gates, railings, canopies, signage frames, planters, and one-off architectural pieces — from a single ornamental gate up to the 250+ items we manufactured and coated for the Hill Dickinson Stadium (Everton FC) hospitality fit-out. For exterior architectural work we recommend a duplex system — hot-dip galvanising followed by powder coating to BS EN 13438.
Indoor and outdoor furniture frames, table bases, bench frames, planters, and one-off pieces. For outdoor we use HDG + powder coat; for indoor we apply powder coat direct. See our bespoke steel furniture guide.
Machine guarding, frames, brackets, hoppers, chutes, panels, and enclosures. We coat to industrial spec — high-build, chemical-resistant, or heat-resistant powders depending on the duty cycle.
For food, beverage and pharmaceutical environments we usually recommend stainless steel with linished or polished finish, but where powder coating is specified on equipment housings or guarding adjacent to wet processes, we use food-contact-compliant powders and full cure cycles.
No minimum order. A single bracket, a one-off bench, a small batch of trade panels — we'll quote it and turn it round. That's the practical advantage of in-house coating: no waiting for someone else's batch to be ready.
Send us parts you've had fabricated elsewhere — we'll coat them as a standalone service. Send them clean, dry, and with any prep instructions.
We work primarily with Interpon (AkzoNobel) and Axalta Alesta powder ranges, in:
All 213 RAL Classic colours available. Many held as ready-to-ship stock — RAL 9005 Jet Black, RAL 9010 Pure White, RAL 9016 Traffic White, RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey, RAL 7035 Light Grey, and the common architectural blacks and greys. Other RAL Classics, custom BS, NCS, or Pantone matches are made to order.

Powder coating quality has three pillars: substrate preparation, powder selection, and cure cycle. We control all three in-house.
Surface preparation: mechanical shot-blast to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1) where required, chemical pretreatment (zinc phosphate or chromate-free conversion) for adhesion, hot-dip galvanise where the substrate spec calls for it.
Powder selection: standard polyester for indoor or general use; super-durable polyester (Qualicoat Class 2) for architectural exterior; epoxy for chemical-resistance applications; epoxy-polyester hybrids where balance is needed.
Cure cycle: controlled-temperature curing oven with traceable temperature logs. Standard cure 180–200 °C for 10–15 minutes at metal temperature, varied per powder data sheet.
We coat to:

North East base, full regional and national reach. Our workshop sits between Newcastle, Sunderland and Durham, 10 minutes from the Tyne Tunnel and on the A1 / A19 spine. Local collection and delivery across Tyne & Wear, Northumberland, County Durham and Tees Valley. Nationwide pallet courier for jobs in Yorkshire, the Midlands, Scotland and beyond.
On indoor architectural work, 15–25 years is typical. On exterior architectural work with proper preparation (galvanised substrate + super-durable powder to Qualicoat Class 2), 25+ years is realistic. The variables are substrate prep, powder grade, UV exposure, and any chloride/marine exposure.
Yes. Every RAL Classic and most RAL Design, BS 4800, NCS, and Pantone references can be matched — RAL Classic is in stock; others are made-to-order with a small minimum.
Yes to all three. Aluminium follows BS EN 12206-1; galvanised steel follows BS EN 13438; stainless steel is rare but doable with proper conversion prep.
Yes — across Newcastle, Sunderland, Durham, Tees Valley, Tyne & Wear and Northumberland. National jobs go on pallet courier anywhere in the UK.
There is no minimum. Single brackets and one-off pieces welcome.
Yes. We coat customer-supplied parts as a standalone service — just send them clean, dry, and with any prep instructions.
We coat to Qualicoat Class 2 specifications. For projects requiring a formally Qualicoat-licensed coater (some architectural specifications mandate this), please discuss at quote stage.
