Surface protection
General concepts and how to select the right painting cycle for your application
In the world of industrial and commercial applications, the importance of surface treatment cannot be underestimated.
Surface treatment is a critical step in preserving the integrity and longevity of structures and equipment, especially when they are exposed to various environmental conditions.
Developed with nine parts, ISO 12944 addresses essential aspect such as environmental categorization, protective paint system specifications, as well as laboratory and field-testing methods, including those tailored for offshore structures. Pietro Fiorentini, has developed over decades of experience specific selections of painting cycles to protect its equipment form the most challenging environments.
Expertise areas
Hydrogen
Hydrogen combustion does not release carbon dioxide, but rather steam, and it is easier to transport and store than electricity. This makes hydrogen the ideal ally for renewable energy production.
Today, hydrogen can only be injected into the pipeline network and blended with natural gas up to certain percentages: we are commited to creating systems and devices that can overcome this limit.
Biomethane
Unlike other renewables, biomethane requires limited investment in terms of infrastructure. Moreover, regarding emissions, it is considered to be neutral as it is produced via the digestion of biomass from by-products, industrial processing waste and organic material.
Specific incentives promoted at the European level are making its use economically sustainable, and as a result production and use of this source are being strongly encouraged.
