Corrosion affects everyone, the global cost of corrosion is estimated in between 3~6% of the global GDP, amounting to a global figure of USD 2.5 trillion.
Clearly, corrosion protection is important in reducing the life cycle cost of plants and machinery.
The cost of corrosion
- Problems with corroded equipment then cause loss of production.
- Frequent equipment refurbishment, parts replacement and, lack of spare parts.
- Repeated corrosion problems.
- Wide variety of high maintenance costs (labor, materials).
- Adverse effects on loss of corporate image and clients.
- Unwanted contamination and, costly waste treatment as a by-product.
ADVANTAGES OF CORROCOAT TECHNOLOGY
- Implementation of reliable anti-corrosion measures.
- Effective use of coatings by the engineering departments.
- Use of combined technology “mechanical engineering and corrosion engineering”.
- Enables reengineering.
