Atmospheric corrosion protection
Airborne moisture, salts, and humidity corrode exposed equipment and new machinery before the original coating lasts a full service interval.
What is failing
Airborne moisture, chlorides, and humidity off the Gulf attack exposed steel long before its original coating reaches the end of a service interval. Pumps, motors, structural members, and freshly delivered equipment start corroding under insulation, at fastener heads, and along weld toes. Once rust takes hold, surface prep and recoat costs climb with every cycle of neglect.
How AAS does it
AAS abrasive-blasts or power-tools the exposed metal to a clean, anchored profile, then applies a barrier coating rated for atmospheric and marine exposure. The crew can coat new equipment before commissioning or work around running assets in the field. A surface-tolerant Belzona 5000-series barrier system cures at ambient temperature, so there is no hot work and no return trip to a shop.
The asset goes back into service with a long-life barrier against Louisiana humidity and salt. The facility resets the corrosion clock and pushes the next recoat well down the road.
How AAS delivers it
AAS performs Atmospheric corrosion protection work for Manufacturing, Facilities, and Oil & Gas operations across Baton Rouge and Louisiana, cold-applied and in place wherever possible, on your turnaround schedule. Crews are factory-trained Belzona applicators, the repair system is matched to the service conditions it will see, and urgent failures are covered by 24-hour on-call response. The result is a permanent, engineered repair that returns the asset to service without the cost or downtime of full replacement.
