The manual booth is the heart of powder coating production – a space where good coating quality is ensured while painting the product.
The task of a good manual booth is to keep excess powder within the industrial zone, collect it for reuse, and provide the operator with a safe working environment with good visibility. The right booth significantly improves coating quality, powder savings, and operator working conditions.
In Estonia, Elister offers Gema and in-house manufactured manual powder coating booths – ranging from simple powder walls to fully automatic in-line booths with powder recovery.
Why is choosing the right manual booth important?
- Operator safety and working conditions – proper air circulation and lighting ensure comfort, good visibility, and compliance with occupational safety standards.
- Colour change speed – fast cleaning means less downtime when there is high variability in parts and colour shades.
- Production capacity – the size and configuration of the booth must suit the dimensions of the parts and the daily production volume.
- Construction choice and durability – sandwich-type, steel, or specially finished walls – depending on your usage needs.
Types of manual booths
Spray Walls
- A simple and compact solution for making samples, small-scale production, and prototypes.
- The filtered back wall collects the excess powder, which is directed into the filter.
- A flexible option with a low investment requirement.
Special solutions
- Booths for coating large profiles, frames, and cable ladders.
- Sensitive solutions (special class, special finish, cleanliness, etc.).

Who is a manual booth suitable for?
Manual booths are the best choice for:
- Coating service providers and industrial subcontractors.
- Industrial companies where the dimensions and geometry of parts vary.
- Companies with small and medium production volumes.
- Coating large parts (frames, profiles, supports) that are difficult to paint in an automatic booth.
- Production operations where fast colour shade changes are important.

"Turnkey" line solutions
The manual booth is often part of a complete powder coating line. Elister designs a "turnkey" solution for you: pre-treatment (Aabo-Ideal), drying oven, manual booth (Gema), curing oven (Aabo-Ideal), and conveyor system.
