Formulation advice for your Marine Coatings
- Click any topic below to access specific technical information and formulation advices for your Marine Coatings -



Marine Coatings

Marine Coatings , also known as "Protective Coatings", are mainly used in fiber glass, wood, steel coatings and as well in marine and bridge coatings. They provide strong resistance to salt and great water repellency which, by the way, is an excellent performance in terms of waterproofing.
Moreover, Marine Coatings are environmental-friendly, non toxic, non flammable, non corrosive and can endure extreme conditions. For example, when such coatings are applied to a metal, they isolate the metal from moisture which gradually results in preventing the steel from rusting.

In addition to that, Marine Coatings definitively show good durability as you’ll easily guess ships and bridges should not be painted every year!
Such coatings, as I’m sure you’ve understood, must therefore exhibit a wide range of properties which makes them belong to special purpose & high performance coatings.
