COATINGS
As a leading provider of integrated surface preparation and coating services, our experience
allows us to precisely define a customised solution that best suits customers' needs across sectors like Oil & Gas, Nuclear, Renewables, and Water Utilities.
Based on our expertise in surface engineering and Advanced Polymer Technology, we can extend the life of equipment by effectively combating abrasion, erosion, corrosion and chemical attack.
Comprehensive Repair and Maintenance Capabilities.
Torishima excels in rebuilding, repairing, protecting, and maintaining a wide range of machinery
and equipment. Our polymer solutions are suitable for pumps, heat exchangers, tanks, pressure
vessels, offshore structures, valves, pipes, fans, and blowers. For highly aggressive
environments, our polymers offer effective protection.
On-Site Surface Coating Application.
Our trained site teams are equipped to apply surface coatings at customer locations, ensuring
the same high standards as our in-house operations. Our surface preparation process adheres to
ISO 8501-1 requirements, guaranteeing top-quality results.
PREPARATION METHODS
Our custom solutions mean we choose the best techniques to remove existing coatings, prepare surfaces for inspection and coating reinstatement and recoat the surface to your requirements. Surface preparation methods we use include ;
- Grit Shot-Blasting
- Hand Preparation
- Power Tools
- Hydro-Blasting (UP/UHP)
- Vapour Blasting
- Abrasive Blast Cleaning

COATING METHODS
Torishima focus is on the application of protective coating systems that provide
excellent corrosion control, best value, whilst we minimise the risk to workers and the
environment.
Our system is a wet & rust tolerant, two pack, high solids MIO - Zinc epoxy which can be
utilised either as a one coat primer/finish with good UV resistance or as a high
performance coating which can be over-coated with colour topcoats.
It is compatible with many aged paint systems, including epoxies, acrylics and other
single pack materials.
With these characteristics, Torishima can coat in almost all weather conditions and give
our coating system a life expectancy of 15-20 years. Our specialized treatments also include Zinc & Manganese Phosphate, Xylan®, and PTFE (Molykote)."
