Secondary containment or "bund" as they are more often referred to should have the sole purpose to contain all of the liquid from primary containment should it fail. Except for water, generally all chemicals are considered hazardous to the environment unless otherwise stated and should and a failure, therefore installing bund linings is essential and mandatory as a legal requirement. Bunds are typically made of either concrete, brick, or metal. For example depending on the corrosivity of the chemical stored in the primary containment or storage tank.
Coating systems protecting steel, concrete structures and pipes from chemically corrosive elements applied during construction or throughout a refurbishment programme.
With our applied coatings and linings impervious to many chemicals in used throughout industry, including Sodium Hydroxide, Hydrochloric Acid, Diesel Fuel and Ethylene Glycol.
- Zero VOCs

- These advantages come with many impressive achievable physical properties, and fast set, return-to-service characteristics. It can also be applied over a variety of different substrates (concrete, metals, wood and more) in a wide range of temperature and humidity environments. Overall polyurea offers a virtually maintenance free construction membrane.
With our extensive knowledge and range of products we have the solutions to look after many of our clients assets including; tank coatings, tank linings, flooring, water containment, secondary fuel containment and storage, wastewater treatment lining, pipeline coatings and linings and more...
Whilst working consistently with manufacturers in developing materials, many of our systems are successfully being used for different applications today. Our coating and linings applications are more commonly applied over concrete and steel for corrosion protection, waterproofing and abrasion resistance, with tremendous advantages over meany conventional materials for tough and hard wearing applications due to their fast set nature, high elongation and durability/abrasion characteristics.
Coatings that combine extreme application properties such as rapid cure, even at temperatures well below 0°C, and insensitivity to high humidity, to exceptional physical properties such as high hardness, flexibility, tear strength, tensile strength, chemical and water resistance.
100 percent-solids systems, making them compliant with the strictest VOC regulations, specific curing profile and exceptional film properties, and many of our spray coating techniques have developed into various areas, including corrosion protection, containment, membranes, linings.
