Petrochemical markets demand high performance coating application in many locations in both on-shore and off-shore installations.

Heavy Duty coatings are applied to external structures providing long term anti-corrosion protection. Many of these coatings require specialist application equipment in the case high solids and solvent free materials.

Process equipment for example internal surfaces of vessels & pipe work require extremely specialised coatings which normally require heated plural component application equipment.

Fire protection is a major concern throughout the industry and this is provided by intumescent coatings which provide a thermal barrier to structural steel and other risk areas. These coatings are known as Passive Fire Protection (PFP) as they slow the damaging and dangerous effects of the fire but do not prevent or suppress fire. Modern high performance epoxy materials are used to provide reinforced fire protection in hazardous locations with long term benefit not available with cementitious materials.

The use of CoverCat PFP Application equipment is widely used in the industry.

CoverCat provide a wide range of equipment for use in the Petrochemical Industry in the application of many high performance coatings in both new build and maintenance programmes.
