Expertise

Understanding the paramount importance of protective coatings within our catered industries, our dedicated team of experts undertake a comprehensive assessment of each component followed by a meticulous preparation process before the application of the selected coating is applied to resist corrosion, abrasion, and the onslaught of harsh environmental factors.

Our proficiency extends to the implementation of offshore painting systems, ensuring that the coatings applied meet the rigorous standards required for offshore environments.

Selecting protective coating

systems using ISO 12944

Protective coatings for steel are seen everywhere, from structural steel in buildings, internal and external roof construction, bridges, storage tanks and pipes for our water and fuel infrastructure, industrial structures in factories and off-shore as parts of renewable energy or oil and gas assets. And then there are the invisible parts: buried, immersed or seldom seen internal parts, tidal and splash zones. Together these possible scenarios form the environment parameters described in the widely used ISO 12944 standard “Paint and Varnishes: Corrosion Protection for steel structures by protective paint systems”
