What Are Industrial Coatings, and Does Your Facility Need Them?

If you manage a warehouse, factory, utility plant, or industrial facility in Puerto Rico, standard paint isn't enough. Harsh environments call for industrial coatings—specialized materials engineered to protect surfaces against moisture, chemicals, abrasion, corrosion, and extreme temperatures.

But what exactly are industrial coatings, and does your property need them? Here's everything you need to know.

🧪What Are Industrial Coatings?

Industrial coatings are high-performance protective finishes applied to surfaces like:

• Steel

• Concrete

• Equipment

• Pipelines

• Floors and ceilings

• Structural components

They’re designed to do more than look good—they create durable barriers that protect surfaces from rust, erosion, salt, oil, chemicals, and impact.

🏭 Where We Use Them in Puerto Rico

We recommend industrial coatings for:

• Warehouses & distribution centers

• Manufacturing facilities

• Parking garages & loading docks

• Breweries, distilleries, and food production spaces

• Commercial kitchens & utility plants

• Marine and coastal facilities

Puerto Rico’s climate brings extreme moisture, salt air, and UV exposure—industrial coatings defend against all three.
