Recently completed a major chemical storage tank refurbishment contract for a major chemical company. 

​

The internal surfaces of the tank  have been corroded over 15 years of service and

had become dangerously close towards the base of the tank. 

​

External and internal corrosion meant that steel plates have to be welded onto the surface of the tank

before the entire area could be rebuilt and resurfaced. 

​

Due to the high viscosity of the materials stored in the tank, a highly abrasive resistant coating was put forward as a long-term solution. The customer was expecting to extend the life cycle of the tanks by another 5 years. 

​

Unique Polymer Systems LTD recommended that the internal surfaces should be rebuilt where required using

UPS 105 EG Metal Repair Paste and then resurfaced with 2 coats of UPS 205 FG Fluid Grade Ceramic
