The product finishing facility comprises of five drive through special Light CV spray booth ovens

Junair Spraybooths are overseeing the whole of the equipment project as well as being the manufacturer and supplier for most of the capital equipment.
To provide Johnston Sweepers with the most up to date technology available, and to provide the minimum running costs for a system of this type, all the spray booths are fitted with Junair’s innovate Eco-Active technology systems which include the patented QADS auxiliary air drying system to minimise process times, variable speed drives for all the fans and the FS system to reduce energy consumption during idle periods. All the booths are fitted with the Junair iSystem which allows simple recipe control of all the process parameters to guarantee Johnston Sweepers the energy savings available. The iSystem controls incorporate job specific data logging and allow remote access for diagnostic checking by the Junair back up team.
