Anti-rust coating – for optimal preservation

Anti-rust coating – for optimal preservation

Rust can pose a significant problem for metal surfaces, especially in industrial environments where low acidity, moisture, and oxygen come together. In such conditions, an anti-rust coating is essential. Using anti-corrosion coatings not only extends the lifespan of materials but also reduces costs by minimizing maintenance and replacements. Below, we provide further explanation.

Preventing corrosion is crucial

Are you familiar with the saying “rust never sleeps”? Just as inactivity leads to deterioration, untreated metal will degrade over time. Even stainless steel can corrode if it’s not adequately protected and maintained. This is particularly evident in coastal areas where metal is exposed to sea air containing tiny droplets of seawater with chlorides.

Why should you avoid corrosion at all costs? It not only affects the appearance of the metal but also its strength. By using an anti-rust coating, you preserve the structural integrity and prevent potentially dangerous situations.

How does an anti-rust coating work?

An anti-corrosion coating forms a barrier on the metal surface, reducing direct exposure to moisture and oxygen. This is crucial in preventing oxidation, the main cause of rust formation.

Important to note: before applying the coating, the surface must be properly prepared, including blasting and degreasing, to ensure optimal adhesion.
