Coatings for power plants

Tikkurila has been supplying industrial coating solutions for power plants for decades, working with everything from traditional coal-fired or gas-fired plants to hydroelectric plants and state-of-the-art solar, wind and nuclear power stations. We have solutions for both new and maintenance painting and a wide international distribution network to ensure on-time delivery.

Answering the challenges of your power plant

Power plant projects are often large and include international stakeholders, leading to technical complexity and a sizeable number of subcontractors. Our technical advisory and support services include expert advice and guidance delivered by certified FROSIO or other inspectors to help you manage these challenges. Because large steel structures are difficult to treat in painting booths, they are often coated in uncontrolled conditions. This puts additional pressures on the coating solution, which needs to be robust and preferably surface tolerant, drying in lower-than-normal temperatures and sometimes humid conditions. Our dependable, high-quality solutions meet these needs and more.
