Why choose 3LPE coating for your pipeline projects
Triple-layer barrier isolates steel substrate from moisture, oxygen, and soil chemicals for decades of reliable service.
Design life of 30–50+ years under normal buried conditions, reducing replacement and maintenance costs significantly.
High impact resistance (≥10 J/mm), abrasion resistance, and penetration resistance protect the pipe during handling, transport, and installation.
FBE primer ensures strong adhesion to steel and excellent resistance to cathodic disbondment, critical for CP-protected pipelines.
Operates reliably from -40°C to +80°C with standard formulation; high-temperature variants available up to +110°C.
Certified to DIN 30670, CSA Z245.21, ISO 21809-1, and EN 10289. Full traceability and mill test certificates provided.
