In the metal industry, surface treatment determines the final result: if pretreatment, painting or drying is left incomplete, no subsequent inspection will correct it. Elister builds comprehensive surface treatment and industrial ventilation solutions for the metal industry – from a single gun to a fully automated painting line.
We have worked in this field for over 25 years and carried out more than 150 projects in more than ten countries. We maintain over 300 systems and 700 devices – we know these solutions even years after installation.
For the metal industry we offer:
- Powder coating solutions – GEMA OptiFlex® Pro manual units, automatic equipment and booths, OptiCenter powder centres, powder pumps and control systems
- Liquid painting equipment – Graco pumps, finishing guns and dosing systems
- Pre-wash and preparation – metal pre-wash systems and shot blasting and abrasive cleaning equipment
- Drying and curing – Aabo-Ideal ovens and drying lines
- Conveyor systems – including Power&Free conveyors for fully automated lines
- Robotic solutions and paint room components
- Industrial ventilation – welding ventilation, dust extraction, aspiration and heat recovery solutions
- Measuring equipment – coating thickness and surface coating quality control
- Safety solutions – STS fire detection and suppression systems and Ex luminaires
We help think the solution through even before selecting the equipment: we map the need, design the line, install and maintain it. This ensures that the painting equipment, conveyor and ventilation are not left mismatched.

Projects
Welding hall ventilation solution with smart remote management
We built a push-pull general ventilation system for the welding hall with two separately controlled zones, ensuring a total air circulation of up to 60,000 m³/h (the requirement was ≥45,000 m³/h) and over 10,000 m³/h of fresh air. We installed two GRAM 364DH double cyclones with 45 kW fans and a C.I.C Jan Hrebec plate heat exchanger with water heating, which reduces heating demand. Compliance of air quality with health protection limit values was confirmed by measurements carried out together with the Health Board, and the entire system is controlled by a single control panel with real-time remote management.
Ventilation solution for a metal finishing room for a 70 m paint room
We designed a new painting area ventilation system for a metal structures manufacturing company in Harju County, in a 70 m long paint room. We installed 9 exhaust walls with filters across three work sections, along with a spark-proof fan with an air exchange rate of 15,000 m³/h. The operator can control all three sections independently using control automation based on pneumatic dampers.
"Power&Free" conveyor fully automatic powder coating line
A modern powder coating line was designed and installed for Torm Metall OÜ, enabling the washing and coating of products with dimensions of 4500 x 1000 x 1800 mm. The solution included a chamber-based 7-stage washing line with separate cabins for ferrous metal and aluminium, a combi oven, and a fully automatic "Power&Free" conveyor system. In the combi oven, the residual temperature of the curing oven is utilised in the drying oven, which increases energy efficiency.
