Fusion bonded epoxy

Fusion bonded epoxy, usually called FBE, is an epoxy based powder coating used to protect in-ground reinforcing steel, ground anchors, pipe connections and valves from corrosion.

FBE is a thermoset polymer. At application temperatures of 200 to 250 °C the powder melts into a liquid that wets and flows over the steel, then quickly becomes a solid coating.

Transport
We can organise delivery of coated product anywhere in the country

Thermoplastic and zinc primers

For heavy industrial machinery components and earth anchor components, we apply thermoplastic coatings that build a thick, tough barrier against wear and corrosion.

Zinc primers can go on first for extra corrosion protection where the steel will face wet, salty or chemical conditions.
