In environments where extreme conditions threaten the longevity of steel structures, Galvosil stands as a superior solution for corrosion prevention. Our Galvosil range of zinc silicate primers provides outstanding anti-corrosive performance, ensuring prolonged asset lifecycles even in the most demanding settings. Designed to withstand the test of time, these coatings deliver exceptional durability, making them an ideal choice for industries that require long-term structural integrity.
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance for Harsh Environments
Galvosil coatings serve as highly effective primers in anti-corrosive coating systems. They can be seamlessly integrated with various intermediates and topcoats, including intumescent passive fire protection coatings. This makes them an optimal solution for industries seeking maximum protection against corrosion without compromising on flexibility or performance.
Developed with cutting-edge zinc silicate chemistry, Galvosil primers provide superior corrosion prevention for steel structures exposed to aggressive environmental conditions. These coatings are extensively used in critical infrastructure projects such as:
- Bridges – Ensuring structural longevity in high-humidity and high-traffic conditions.
- Airports – Protecting steel structures from extreme weather conditions and pollutants.
- Offshore Wind Turbines – Defending against saltwater exposure and harsh marine environments.
- Containers – Preventing corrosion caused by prolonged exposure to fluctuating weather.
- Power Stations – Offering long-term protection in high-temperature industrial settings.
- Oil & Gas Installations – Safeguarding steel components from corrosive chemicals and high-pressure conditions.
- Tanks & Storage Facilities – Providing an effective barrier against chemical exposure and corrosion.
Reliable Protection with Single-Coat Solutions
One of the standout advantages of the Galvosil range is its capability to function as a single-coat solution for tank linings. Designed to resist a broad spectrum of chemicals, Galvosil coatings prevent corrosion while maintaining the purity of stored cargo. This makes them an excellent choice for industrial storage facilities, refineries, and chemical processing plants.
