Sulfuric Acid Containment Area Lining

admin — Thu, 30 Dec 2010 21:35:53 +0000

TMI Coatings recently contracted with an energy company in Illinois to line a sulfuric acid containment area. The existing concrete was mushy and severely deteriorated from years of chemical saturation. TMI’s crew began by removing the existing coating and soft concrete. All surfaces were neutralized, abraded and restored prior to application of the new floor topping. TMI applied a cementitious urethane floor topping to the interior of the containment dike. This low odor, 100% solids cementitious urethane topping is trowel applied and designed to protect the concrete from chemical attacks, corrosion, impact and thermal shock. Repeated exposure to hot oil and steam will not cause pitting, cracking or crazing. Cementitious urethane toppings are seamless, durable and suitable for industrial use. Flooring can be non-skid for slip-resistance for safety.

Fiberglass Coatings Can Solve a Problem with Peeling or Flaking Paint!

Is peeling or flaking paint an issue at your plant? Do you have wet environments where areas have been painted and repainted and the paint will not adhere? A Wisconsin food processing plant has been dealing with these issues and wanted a solution to their ever present peeling paint problems.

You may be familiar with applying FIBERLIFE coatings to concrete walls, but the TMI FIBERLIFE product is also a feasible solution for steel food plant equipment and steel columns. TMI FIBERLIFE, which is a fiberglass coating with an epoxy resin, can withstand constant wash downs in a wet and humid environment.

TMI Coatings pressure washed and prepared numerous columns and structural steel beams to remove loose and flaking paint. We then applied TMI FIBERLIFE to the columns, I-beams and structural steel. Now, the food processing facility will not have to deal with peeling and flaking paint and having to repaint this equipment on a yearly basis.

TMI FIBERLIFE Coating

TMI FIBERLIFE is a low odor, fiberglass-reinforced coating that protects ceilings and walls against acids and alkalis. The coating provides a seamless surface for easy cleaning and is ideal for use in food and beverage plants where peeling paint cannot be tolerated. TMI FIBERLIFE meets USDA requirements for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants.

Because of the fiberglass reinforcement, TMI FIBERLIFE is tough and durable; yet, it still works well in light industrial situations. The coating can be applied by spraying, or laid up by hand.

Will insert the TMI logo as I can’t find one product specific….
