Industrial Paints

Industrial paints are specialized coatings formulated for durability, protection, and specific performance requirements in demanding environments. Choose systems based on substrate, exposure (UV, chemicals, immersion), application method, and maintenance strategy.

1. Epoxy Paints

  • High durability, chemical resistance, and abrasion tolerance.
  • Ideal for factory/warehouse floors, tanks, and heavy-traffic areas.
  • Usually two-part (resin + hardener); often used under PU topcoats.

2. Polyurethane Coatings

  • Excellent UV, chemical, and abrasion resistance.
  • High-gloss, colour-stable finishes for machinery and structural steel.
  • Common as weatherable topcoats over epoxy intermediates.

3. Acrylic Paints

  • Available in water- and solvent-based versions; low odor options.
  • Good adhesion and weathering for general maintenance.
  • Useful on metals and building surfaces where fast recoat is needed.

4. Alkyd Paints

  • Oil-based; smooth, hard film with strong adhesion.
  • Durable for metal structures, machinery, and equipment.
  • Suitable for interior/exterior when cure time is acceptable.

5. Specialty Coatings

  • Intumescent: Fire-resistant films that expand under heat to insulate structural steel.
  • Anti-Graffiti: Non-stick surfaces for easy removal of paint/inks.
  • Elastomeric: Highly flexible, waterproof, crack-bridging membranes.

Tip: pair epoxies (barrier/chemical resistance) with polyurethane topcoats (UV stability) for long-life exterior systems. Always verify compatibility and surface prep standards before application.
