Why Hempel?
For the past 50 years Hempel Pakistan has been the first line of defense for owners who care about their structures and buildings performing to high standards in the most corrosive environments. MCS & Hempel work with users across the marine, protective and oil & gas sectors from the design phase to regular maintenance schedules, ensuring that efficiencies are maximized while low downtime and extra costs are kept to a minimum.
Marine
As a global supplier of high-quality marine paints and coatings, Hempel keeps your ship in prime condition, both inside and out, throughout its lifetime – from the shipbuilding yard and through many years of efficient operationUnderwater Hull Hempel has developed a broad range of Fouling Control products that offer fouling prevention up to 90 months. These reduce fuel consumption upto 6% while providing you with the trading flexibility and increased efficiencies.
Ballast Tanks Ballast tanks often make up the largest area of the steel structure of a marine vessel. If they are not fully protected they start to corrode, degrading operational safety, efficiency and service life. Hempel’s pure epoxy certified coatings build on proven technology to offer excellent corrosion protection for ballast tanks. They increase service life and reduce maintenance costs.
Cargo Holds Cargo holds are subject to very harsh conditions. Loading and carrying dry cargoes can lead to abrasion, impact and mechanical damage. To further add to the pressures on cargo holds, certain cargoes bring significant thermal and chemical challenges. Hempel’s pure epoxy coatings rely on proven technology to meet the increasingly harsh demands placed on cargo holds today. They are ideal for lowering maintenance costs and reducing loading times.
Cargo Tanks Today, an increasing number of vessels carry liquid cargoes that can be highly chemically aggressive. Furthermore, the majority of cargo tanks in the global fleet are built from mild steel, also known as plain-carbon steel, which needs corrosion protection. Hempel’s pure epoxy, phenolic epoxy and zinc silicate-based cargo tank coatings build on proven technology. They provide optimal tank protection, simplify cleaning and minimise maintenance costs.
Decks, Topsides and Superstructures With a wide range of coatings, Hempel protect’s all deck, topside and superstructure areas of your vessel – whether you need a coating for on-board repairs, a large refurbishment project or an optimised solution to reduce newbuilding time.
Accommodation Hempel’s certified range of coatings will help you protect and maintain the interior of your vessels. The steel of your interiors needs the best care. Our range of coatings will give you corrosion-free interiors with low flame spread and are easy to maintain
Portable Water All ships have water tanks to store potable drinking water. And while the tank size and type can vary, the requirements are always the same: to provide your crew with clean, fresh water. This means the tank has to be coated with a certified potable water coating that protects the steel tank from corrosion and keeps the water inside clean.
MCS also provides customized protective coatings solutions for:
