Protection for Every Sector
From power plants to marine vessels, chemical facilities to civil infrastructure — Francolor Chemicals delivers engineered coating solutions across every major industrial sector.
Power Generation
Power plants operate in some of the most aggressive environments imaginable — high temperatures, humidity, chemical exposure, and constant mechanical stress. Francolor provides comprehensive corrosion protection for cooling towers, boiler structures, chimneys, turbine housings, pipe racks, and all auxiliary equipment.
Key Challenges
- High operating temperatures up to 200°C
- Condensate and steam exposure
- Chemical attack from flue gases
- Mechanical stress and vibration
Our Solutions
- Heat-resistant epoxy and silicone coating systems
- Zinc-rich primer + epoxy mid-coat + PU topcoat systems
- Anti-carbonation coatings for concrete structures
- Chemical-resistant flue gas desulphurization linings
Marine & Offshore
The marine environment is one of the most corrosive on Earth. Saltwater, splash zones, constant wetting and drying, biofouling, and underwater immersion create unique challenges that demand the highest performance coatings. Francolor's marine range delivers proven protection for vessel hulls, superstructures, tanks, and offshore platforms.
Key Challenges
- Saltwater and chloride immersion
- Biofouling in underwater zones
- Impact and abrasion in port operations
- Extended periods between drydocking
Our Solutions
- Vinyl Ester Glass Flake hull coatings
- Anticorrosive and antifouling paint systems
- Bilge and ballast tank linings
- Offshore splash zone protection systems
Chemical & Petrochemical
Chemical and petrochemical plants handle some of the most corrosive substances known — concentrated acids, solvents, alkalis, and reactive intermediates. A coating failure can mean plant downtime, environmental incidents, and serious safety risks. Francolor's chemical-resistant coating systems are engineered to withstand these extreme conditions.
Key Challenges
- Immersion in concentrated acids and alkalis
- Solvent attack on coating films
- High-temperature process conditions
- Strict safety and regulatory requirements
Our Solutions
- Vinyl Ester Glass Flake tank linings
- Solvent-resistant epoxy coating systems
- High-temperature resistant insulation coatings
- Secondary containment bund linings
Civil Infrastructure
Concrete infrastructure — bridges, metro viaducts, flyovers, parking structures, and buildings — faces constant attack from carbonation, chloride ingress, and water penetration. Francolor's anti-carbonation and waterproofing systems protect these critical structures, extending service life and reducing costly repair cycles.
Key Challenges
- Carbonation reducing concrete pH
- Chloride ingress causing rebar corrosion
- Freeze-thaw cycling causing spalling
- Traffic-induced cracking and movement
Our Solutions
- Elastomeric anti-carbonation coating systems
- Penetrating silane/siloxane water repellents
- Chloride barrier coating systems
- Crack injection and repair systems
Renewable Energy
Wind turbines and solar infrastructure represent massive long-term investments that must perform reliably for 20-25 years with minimal maintenance. Francolor's renewable energy coating systems provide exceptional weathering resistance, UV protection, and corrosion protection for tower structures, nacelles, and foundations.
Key Challenges
- Extreme UV radiation exposure
- High humidity and coastal salt spray
- Temperature cycling from -40°C to +80°C
- Access limitations for maintenance
Our Solutions
- Polyurethane topcoat systems for UV resistance
- Zinc-rich primer + epoxy + PU system
- Leading edge erosion protection coatings
- Epoxy foundation and substructure protection
Water Treatment
Water treatment and distribution infrastructure requires coatings that are not only chemically resistant but also safe for contact with potable water. Francolor offers approved tank lining systems for raw water, treated water, and wastewater applications, along with chemical dosing systems.
Key Challenges
- Potable water safety requirements
- Constant water immersion and wetting
- Chlorine and chemical dosing exposure
- Long service life with minimal maintenance
Our Solutions
- BS EN 1504 compliant concrete repair systems
- Potable water approved epoxy linings
- Chemical-resistant dosing tank coatings
- Waterproofing and structural repair systems
