Industrial paint booths
When the part won’t fit in any catalogue booth. Oversized enclosures, complete lines, integration with what you already have.
Mecatelier designs, builds and installs industrial paint booths for every sector of surface treatment. Our installations range from the standard automotive booth to custom-built equipment for oversized parts.
An industrial booth isn’t chosen from a catalogue. What determines it is your most awkward parts, your real throughput, the space available and the constraints of your building. That study comes before any priced proposal.
Our booths by sector

Railway
rolling stock and sub-assemblies
Marine
hulls, superstructures and large components
Custom-built
when no standard size will do
The components that make the difference
Two booths of identical dimensions can give very different results. Quality comes down to things you can’t see from the outside.
The heat exchanger preheats the incoming air with the outgoing air: it is what decides your energy bill. The burner must be sized for the actual temperature rise in your region, not for an average. The ventilation, with two separate motors for supply and extraction, determines both the quality of the finish and the safety of the operator. The lighting determines what you see of the result while you work. The sandwich panels provide the insulation and therefore a stable temperature.
These components are explained in detail on our page about how a paint booth works.
Beyond the booth
A surface treatment installation doesn’t stop at the paint booth. Depending on your processes, it comes with additional equipment that we also manufacture.
- Preparation areas and sanding stations
- Extraction walls for touch-ups and priming
- Paint mixing rooms and mixing stations
- Industrial curing ovens and booths with curing
- Washing booths and degreasing tunnels
- Powder coating booths and lines
- Automated paint lines
Support
We go beyond supplying the equipment: layout study, on-site installation, commissioning, maintenance and filter supply, audits and compliance upgrades of existing installations — including booths that are not our make.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between an industrial booth and an automotive booth?
The operating principle is the same. What changes is the dimensions, the handling of the parts, the products applied and the throughput. An automotive booth is a particular case of industrial booth, sized for vehicles.
Do you build booths outside standard dimensions?
Yes. It’s actually a large part of our business: railway, marine, large machines and oversized parts don’t fit any catalogue size.
How much does an industrial paint booth cost?
There is no meaningful catalogue price: the price depends on the dimensions, the ventilation and heating equipment, the level of finish expected and the constraints of the building. We draw up a proposal after studying your configuration.
Do you work on existing installations?
Yes, whatever the make: audits, compliance upgrades, refurbishment, component replacement, installation and dismantling.
Which geographical areas do you cover?
We work all over the world, for both the study and the installation; our main markets are France, Belgium and Luxembourg.
