Fernco Ultracoat epoxy coating system

Ultracoat is an epoxy coating system that can repair and provide rehabilitation and protection of grease traps, settlement tanks, manholes and other trade effluent chambers.

Due to the chemical composition of the trade effluent, chambers traditionally built with concrete and brick will become corroded over a period of time. Effluent may then leach out into the ground, and groundwater will also infiltrate into the drainage network. As a result, the structure may become unstable, maintenance becomes more expensive and the facility may experience downtime. Furthermore, environmental issues may become legal issues.

Using the chemical-resistant (pH 2-14) Ultracoat epoxy spray applied coating system, these structures can be efficiently repaired and permanently protected, which is claimed to be able to extend their life by up to 50 years.

Suitable for the food and drink industry, the product contains no VOCs and is particularly suited to application in corroded chambers and settlement tanks that are located underground or in confined spaces. Independently tested and approved according to a range of international standards, the product is also suitable for bunds, manholes, grease traps, reservoirs, tunnels and other structures at risk from corrosion.
