Services
Tank Lining
Our tank lining solutions provide durable corrosion resistance for industrial storage systems. Using polyamide coal tar epoxy coatings (16-20 mils DFT) for interiors and catalyzed polyurethane finishes for exteriors, we meet AWWA, FDA, and USDA standards. Our NACE #1 white metal blast cleaning ensures optimal adhesion. This service protects critical infrastructure in chemical processing, water treatment, and food processing facilities while maintaining compliance with federal specifications.
Corn Cob Blasting
This non-abrasive cleaning method safely removes coatings and contaminants without damaging surfaces. Using organic corn cob media, we prepare surfaces for recoating while preserving material integrity. Ideal for sensitive applications like glass surfaces and precision equipment, this process creates optimal surface 'tooth' for coating adhesion. Our technicians document all parameters to meet ISO and SSPC standards, ensuring consistent results for clients in pharmaceutical and food processing industries.
Steel Finishing
We provide comprehensive coating solutions for structural steel and non-ferrous metals. Our three-stage process includes inorganic zinc priming, high-build epoxy intermediate coating, and catalyzed polyurethane finishing. Meeting ISO and NACE specifications, this system protects everything from piping systems to industrial tanks. With facilities handling any size shipment, we offer both on-site and in-plant services, ensuring compliance with project-specific corrosion protection requirements.
Increased Lighting
Our high-reflectance (93%) industrial coatings double available light in production areas. This Franklin Park-developed solution combines thorough surface cleaning with specialized coating application. By improving illumination, this service enhances workplace safety and productivity while reducing energy costs. The system meets all applicable OSHA standards for industrial environments and has been implemented by numerous local manufacturing facilities seeking operational efficiency improvements.
Machinery Refinishing
We restore industrial machinery to like-new condition through precision cleaning and coating. Our process handles large-scale equipment while maintaining dimensional accuracy. Using corrosion-resistant primers and durable topcoats, we extend equipment lifespan while meeting original specifications. Clients rely on our documented compliance with international standards for critical machinery in chemical processing and manufacturing plants, ensuring both aesthetic and functional restoration.
