The Mount Industrial Zone is Brutal
Industrial assets in Tauranga face a "double threat": chemical exposure from internal operations and aggressive salt attack from the harbour environment.
Standard paint fails here. We specialize in High-Performance Protective Coatings. Whether it's a portal frame in Tauriko or a silo in the Port zone, we engineer coating systems that provide barrier protection against corrosion, impact, and chemical spills.
Fast response. Local teams.
Industrial Capabilities
Steel Structure Protection
The Science: Steel rusts. We stop it.
Preparation: We utilize abrasive blasting or mechanical abrasion to achieve the correct surface profile (anchor pattern) before coating.
The System: We apply multi-coat systems, Zinc-rich primers for sacrificial protection, high-build epoxies for barrier protection, and Urethane topcoats for UV stability.
Epoxy & Resin Flooring
The Science: Concrete creates dust and absorbs chemicals.
The Solution: We apply industrial-grade Epoxy and Polyurethane floor coatings.
Applications: Warehouses: Dust-proofing and line marking for forklifts. Food Processing: Non-slip, anti-microbial coatings that meet MPI audit standards. Workshops: Chemical-resistant floors that withstand oil and hydraulic fluid spills.
Large-Scale Cladding Refurbishment
The Science: Faded factory cladding hurts your brand and risks leaks.
The Solution: We deploy boom lifts and high-volume airless sprayers to recoat thousands of square metres of Tilt Slab or Colorsteel cladding efficiently.
Speed: Leveraging our workforce across Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty, we can swarm large industrial sites to complete repaints in tight shutdown windows.
Fast response. Local teams.
We Paint by the Numbers
Industrial painting is engineering. We follow strict Quality Assurance (QA) protocols:
-
Micron Checks: We measure Wet Film Thickness (WFT) and Dry Film Thickness (DFT) to ensure the coating meets the engineer's specification.
-
Adhesion Testing: We verify that the new coating has bonded correctly to the substrate.
-
Atmospheric Monitoring: We log Dew Point, Relative Humidity, and Temperature to ensure we never paint outside of the technical data sheet (TDS) parameters.
Fast response. Local teams.

Industrial Coatings Frequently Asked Questions
It is difficult, but possible. We can use fast-cure polyaspartic coatings that cure in hours, not days, allowing for overnight application and morning traffic.
Yes. We are manufacturer-trained applicators for intumescent coatings on structural steel. (See our Fire Protection Page for details).
