Blasting & Painting

Separate Blasting and Painting Booths: Our facilities feature dedicated booths for blasting and painting operations, allowing us to control dust, optimize airflow, and minimize contamination during the coating process. This segregation ensures that surfaces are prepared and coated under ideal conditions, resulting in superior adhesion and finish quality.

Surface Preparation: Proper surface preparation is critical to the performance of coatings. We employ a range of blasting techniques, including:

Abrasive Blasting: Using various media (such as steel grit, aluminum oxide, and garnet) to effectively remove rust, scale, and old coatings, achieving a clean surface profile that enhances adhesion.

Wet Blasting: Utilized for sensitive environments where dust control is essential; this technique combines water and abrasive material to minimize airborne particles while achieving effective cleaning.

Coating Selection: Our team is adept at selecting appropriate coating systems based on environmental conditions and client specifications. We provide a range of protective coatings, including:

Epoxy Coatings: Known for their chemical resistance and durability, ideal for environments exposed to harsh chemicals and moisture.

Polyurethane Coatings: Offering excellent abrasion resistance and color retention, these coatings are ideal for outdoor applications subject to UV exposure.

Zinc Rich Primers: Providing galvanic protection to steel substrates, ideal for offshore and marine environments.

Application Techniques: We utilize advanced application methods to ensure uniform coverage and optimal thickness of protective coatings:

Airless Spray Application: This method provides a smooth finish and is ideal for large surface areas, ensuring consistent coverage and faster application rates.

Brush and Roll Application: Employed for intricate metalwork and areas requiring detailed finishing, ensuring no area is left uncoated.

Quality Control Measures: Our blasting and painting processes include strict quality control protocols to ensure compliance with industry standards for corrosion protection. This includes:

Coating Thickness Measurements: Utilizing dry film thickness gauges to ensure that applied coatings are within the specified range for optimal performance.

Adhesion Testing: Conducting tests, such as the pull-off test, to evaluate the adhesion strength of coatings to substrates, ensuring long-lasting protection.
