What is an Industrial Painter?
An industrial painter is there to meet the highest industry standards regarding chemical and corrosion resistance coating needs. Industrial painters use techniques designed to offer coating corrosion protection for all materials, structures, equipment, and steel pipes holding gases, oils, water, wastewater, petrochemicals, and food processing equipment that requires non-stick coating. It is also widely used in agricultural, automotive and construction equipment. See the list below of what an industrial painter could help you with.
Besides corrosion prevention, industrial painter techniques can provide a non-stick performance, scrape resistance and chemical protection with industrial coating. These resistance qualities are achieved using epoxy and fluoropolymer to make the coatings. By using industrial coating for your equipment, structures and so on, not only will you be strengthening your equipment, which will result in time and cost savings by expanding the longevity of your equipment, but you will also be helping the impact on the environment by not needing to scrap and replace current equipment.
A Painters Inspection
Before any application of re-application of coating or even work towards abrasive blasting. A painters inspection must be conducted first to ensure the desired result for our clients and keep with health and safety guidelines.
- Qualified Supervision
- BGAS/ICORR/SSPC Inspections
- Protective Coating Surveys
- Maintance Plans
- Third Party Inspection
With inspection, it’s crucial that the correct equipment is used, and the right qualified personnel is used to do it. The proper industrial painter qualifications and equipment will ensure a thorough inspection and the correct result.
What Applications Does A Industrial Painter Use?
Regarding industrial coating painting applications, an industrial painter can use several techniques depending on the job and the desired result. Below is a list of application methods we can use.
Air Assisted: This method will offer a smooth finish to any surface it’s applied to due to the level of pressure used.
Paint Brush: Like any other type of painting, the old methods are sometimes the best. We are open to using painting techniques if the job requires it; sometimes, it can offer a potential
Airless Sprayer: Offering a higher-pressure application can be great for spraying more significant areas more efficiently.
No matter what equipment or structure is needed, we assure you that we have the proper industrial painter techniques available for your industrial coating needs.

Apply primer coats, primary coats, and finishes; adhere to inspection criteria and project specifications without exception.
Maintenance Coating
Maintenance coating is used widely for various applications, from processing tanks to large industrial structures, such as bridges and/or chemical tanks. The systems are often exposed to harsher environments. Thus, the need for maintenance coating can make or break your structure’s integrity. Maintenance coating depends solely on the protection needed for your structures and systems. Industrial Maintenance Coatings can be used directly over an assortment of adequately prepared substrates while offering an excellent protective coating.
Maintenance coating isn’t just for the newly prepared apparatus; maintenance coating can be applied to all needs. Whether it is brand new or old equipment which has been correctly stripped back in preparation for coating application, maintenance coating can come in many different forms, allowing for multiple application needs, so if you want to know which type is best for your structure/equipment, feel free to ask.
Thermal Insulating Coating
Thermal Insulating Coating can be applied by spray, brush, roll, or trowel. The desired coating thickness depends on the purpose and insulating power needed. Some of the ‘norm’ uses of thermal insulating coating include personnel protection, energy management, and condensation control.
One of the main benefits thermal insulating coatings can provide is from a health and safety point of view. Accidental touching of equipment which is designed to store, hold, or use highly heated materials can cause 3rd-degree burns; this can be stopped with the application of the thermal insulating coating. Applying thermal conduction coating removes the bare-metal element of skin content should such an accident happen; we still do not recommend touching such equipment, even with a thermal insulating coating applied.
The thermal insulating coating can offer numerous other benefits as well as health and safety benefits. Some of these additional benefits include Energy management and condensation prevention, which can provide a cost-saving element to your business.
Hydro-Insulating Coating
Hydro-Insulating coating is another way to keep your equipment/industrial structures in full check, keeping your materials free of water damage and dampness. Particularly equipment that requires unique materials to provide high-performance waterproofing and protect your structures/systems from moisture, which can result in corrosion over time.
Hydro-insulation industrial coating is used for waterproofing insulation of structures subjected to positive and negative hydrostatic pressure: swimming pools and ponds, settling tanks, water treatment plants, wall and floor surfaces of cellars and basements, reservoirs, canals, concrete pipes, manholes, balconies, sanitary facilities, and more.
Hot Application Coating
Hot application industrial coating is a ceramic-based, water-borne insulator that insulates in medium-temperature situations. This industrial coating technique is used as a base coat/primer or built-up layer for additional protection. It can help navigate high temperatures, sometimes up to 850 °C.
To improve efficiency during maintenance, applying coatings onto live, high-temperature equipment is becoming more well-known, especially in the oil & gas industry. This, of course, can create significant savings because conducting a maintenance plan on a highly tasked site can cost thousands of pounds to shut down the plant, thus meaning doing live maintenance can cut this cost of shutting a site down.
Splash Zone Application
Splash zones are areas of the structure which meet the water flow from the sea or lakes. Splash zone areas within your facilities can cause corrosion, erosion, abrasion, and even structural damage. Although you may think that slight splash zones shouldn’t have too much of an impact on your structures, initially, small doses wouldn’t cause any effect, but see it as a compound effect the more that these environmental effects contaminate the area.
With enough time passing with this continued impact, the damage will occur if that area is not treated effectively. For example, seawater can penetrate between the concrete jacket and the metal, causing corrosion or pressure from the wave of the same sea water causing structural damage.
