HMG Primers Range: The Benefits of the Multi-coat System

Powder Coating

Corrosion is the natural process in which a metal is eaten away and changed by chemical and/or electrochemical action from exposure to the environment. When the substrate is steel, corrosion is usually referred to as rusting and it is formation of iron oxides in the presence of oxygen, water, salt and other chemicals such as acids that may accelerate the process.

Rusting leads to huge costs for the end user if the steel is not suitably protected. Poor protection leads to more frequent maintenance, repair and replacement.

HMG Powder Coatings have revisited primers and the technology available for steel and corrosion protection. Having had the opportunity to start with a blank canvas together with extensive field data and testing are ready to launch an easy to understand Primer Approach to Corrosion ProtectionRusting leads to huge costs for the end user if the steel is not suitably protected. Poor protection leads to more frequent maintenance, repair and replacement.
