Protecting against chemical agents and other corrosive substances
Our solution, Rilsan®, provides complete, durable, and reliable protection to metal pipes, flanges and fittings in ships, offshore platforms or other environments (e.g. telecommunications piping on the ocean floor).
With this coating, we ensure the safety and durability of ship components, protecting them from phenomena such as galvanic currents, corrosion, wear and tear, and aggressive chemicals.
In fact, Rilsan® is applied as a metal coating, thus protecting against damage (friction, shocks) and against the main corrosive agents caused by sea salt, thus prolonging the service life of the components to which it is applied.
Rilsan® bioplastic is suitable for a wide range of different sectors – from shipping to the food industry – offering reliability, protection and durability for up to 40 years of maintenance-free use.
