Hydroplate 6500: Application

Designed as a premium-grade, ultra-durable epoxy lining, Hydroplate 6500 is ideally suited for use on both concrete and steel surfaces in aggressive, hydrogen sulfide rich municipal and industrial wastewater environments.

The Red Bucket BONUS - Regulatory affairs in Europe

Nel nuovo episodio del nostro podcast, parliamo di un tema spesso percepito come tecnico e complesso, ma in realtà sempre più strategico: il mondo del Regulatory nei rivestimenti industriali. Ne discutiamo con Alice Paiotta, Regulatory & Quality Assurance Manager Europe in Carboline, che ci guida in un viaggio tra REACH, sostenibilità, rischi normativi, competitività e innovazione.

The Red Bucket – Episode 25. Renovating the iconic Santiago Bernabeu Stadium (Feat. Juan Pablo Ortega [again])

Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, Spain, is the iconic home of legendary soccer club Real Madrid. A recent five-year renovation has transformed the stadium into a modern engineering marvel. Fireproofing and corrosion protection coating systems each played a role in the mega project, and in this episode, Carboline's Europe Director of Project Development, Juan Pablo Ortega, leads a tour of his favorite team's new digs. Also, is it possible for another country to have larger portion sizes than America?

Biofuel producer achieves multi-modal protection for ethanol storage tanks

The Green America Biofuels facility produces 65 million gallons (246 million liters) of ethanol each year. Integral to that production are five storage and process tanks. The tanks are coated to protect against corrosion. But plant management has more to worry about than just this electrochemical phenomenon. A biological process thrives at the site, too. You know it when you see it—dark black streaks on the sides of tanks or buildings—and it must be stopped.
