Tank & Pipe Lining

Applications

Chemco have been designing specialist tank and pipe lining systems for over 35 years. These glassflake linings have a successful track record in the most aggressive chemical and high temperature environments.

Chemco also offer a range of ceramic systems for tank linings where abrasion and chemical resistance are required.

Solutions

Polyester Glassflake Coatings

These products are recommended where long lasting performance is required. Their unique characteristics (optimum protection from the harshest and most severe operating environments) make them an ideal choice for metal, concrete and other substrates.

Chemco’s polyester coating systems are available in two versions; Chem-glass™ RA 200 and Chem-glass™ RE 200.

RA 200 is typically utilised as a tank lining offering exceptional resistance to harsh chemical environments. RE 200 is an isophthalic polyester traditionally utilised as a one-coat system for offshore structures.

  • RA 200
  • RA 200C
  • RE 200
  • RE 200P

Vinylester Glassflake Coatings

Chemco’s vinylester range has provided the most cost effective, long-term tank lining solution for over 30 years. These vinylester systems have now superseded polyester due to their ability to handle the most aggressive chemicals at higher temperatures.

There are six unique products in the Chem-tect™ 300 series. These vinylester glassflake systems offer long-term corrosion protection across the full pH range (1 – 14).

They are particularly effective in acidic environments at high temperatures where conventional epoxies cannot function.

  • RA 300
  • RB 300
  • RC 300
  • RD 300
  • RE 300
  • RF 300
