Spray painting

A specific protection for your specific situation

By wet painting your steel construction, you prevent deterioration caused by oxygen, air or salt. We can provide your steel with various paint systems that give your constructions the protection required in your specific situation. We do this with an efficient wet painting process and a critical eye from our experts.

Step 1/4 - How it works

Blasting

The structural steel is blasted. Depending on the dimensions, the intended result and the desired quality, this is done with automated blasting machines or by hand. Rust or other contamination is removed during this process.

Step 2/4 - How it works

Wet painting

Afterwards, the steel is placed on trestles in one of the wet painting halls. Here the steel is sprayed by hand. Depending on the desired robustness of the paint, we provide your steel with a single or multiple coat system, or a fire-resistant coating.

Step 3/4 - How it works

Drying

The steel constructions are stored in our buffer, where they are given time to dry for an optimal result.

Step 4/4 - How it works

Transport

After drying, the steel constructions are ready for transport. We load them onto your trailer at the loading docks, so that your steel is ready for use as soon as possible.
