Anti-Corrosion Coating: A Comprehensive Guide

An anti-corrosion coating is a protective layer applied to metal surfaces that helps prevent rust and corrosion. By isolating the metal from moisture and corrosive agents, these coatings prolong the life and integrity of the structure beneath.

Anti-corrosion coatings, like the ones we provide at Northpoint, can mean the difference between decades of trouble-free metal parts and frequent maintenance headaches. At Northpoint, we specialise in both powder coating and wet paint systems designed to resist corrosion, even in the harshest environments.

Why Anti-Corrosion Coating Matters for Your Assets

Protecting Structural Integrity

Corrosion gradually eats away at metal, weakening beams, frames, fences, pipework, and many more. Once this process begins, repair costs can become quite high. A well-applied anti-corrosion coating prevents that initial attack, preserving strength and structural safety.

Reducing Lifetime Costs

With our coatings, our customers can avoid the need for repeated repainting, downtime for repairs, and costly replacement of corroded parts. Northpoint’s coatings are designed for longevity and low maintenance.

Meeting Industry Standards

Many sectors demand compliance with corrosion classes (C1, C2, etc.) and specifications such as NORSOK or DWI. Using certified anti-corrosion coatings ensures you meet regulatory and contractual requirements.

Northpoint’s Approach to Anti-Corrosion Coating

Northpoint has decades of experience in specialist powder coating. Our powder coatings ensure your metals are protected against corrosion, offering consistent coverage and durability. Where powder isn’t ideal, we offer wet paint services, and our spray booths ensure uniform application.
