In addition to the aesthetic aspect, hall painting is, above all, an effective protection of steel structures against corrosion and other external factors. Thus, in industry, where every detail matters, proper protection of steel surfaces can bring real financial and operational benefits. How, then, to ensure proper painting of industrial halls?
Why is industrial hall painting important?
Steel, from which industrial halls are most often made, is exposed to many factors that can accelerate its corrosion. Moisture, salinity or smog can significantly accelerate this process. Therefore, it is important to protect steel structures from the harmful effects of these factors. Modern technologies and materials make it possible to create coatings that are resistant to mechanical and chemical agents. As a result, painting an industrial hall becomes an investment for years. A properly protected hall also affects the safety of workers and protects the equipment and products stored inside. The aesthetic appearance of the hall can also improve the image of the company in the eyes of customers and business partners.
Choosing the right preparations
Depending on the type of covering of the hall and its purpose, different painting agents can be used. There are paints designed for raw steel, galvanized steel, one-component or two-component. Price goes hand in hand with quality, so do not look for cheaper substitutes, but choose paints of excellent quality that will provide effective corrosion protection.
Modern markets offer a wide range of products for painting industrial halls. When choosing the right preparations, it is worth paying attention to their composition, properties and manufacturer’s recommendations. This will ensure that the painting will be durable, ecological and environmentally safe.
When choosing preparations for painting, consult with experts in the field. This way you can be sure that the selected products will be suitable for a particular type of hall and meet all the expectations of the entrepreneur.
Industrial hall painting techniques
Spray painting allows for fast and precise coverage of large surfaces. It uses airless spray systems, which disperse the paint using a high-pressure air stream. This enables the application of a uniform and tight coating layer.
Spray painting is especially recommended for large industrial structures, where traditional painting methods can be too time-consuming and less effective. For small touch-ups in hard-to-reach areas, such as corners and weld seams where an airless sprayer may not be effective, specialized brushes and rollers are also used.
Corrosion protection and interior marking
Corrosion is the main enemy of steel structures. To prevent its effects, it is necessary to use appropriate anti-corrosion agents. Depending on the degree of exposure to corrosion, you can choose products with different corrosivity classes, from C1 (very low) to C5 (very high/industrial). It is also necessary to select the appropriate thickness of coatings and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Meanwhile, proper marking of internal escape routes and passageways is a legal requirement to increase safety and efficiency in the hall. As a result, employees know where to go, and the risk of accidents at work is significantly reduced.
Costs and benefits of a painted industrial hall
Investing in professional industrial hall painting may seem expensive at first, but it has long-term benefits. A properly protected industrial hall is less prone to damage, which translates into lower maintenance and repair costs in the future. Painting industrial halls is a task that requires a professional approach and knowledge of the specifics of working in such facilities. With proper protection of steel structures against corrosion, the hall will serve for many years, and its appearance will be more presentable at the same time.
When choosing a company for painting industrial halls, it is worth paying attention to its experience and credentials. RS-MAL, operating in the provinces of Lesser Poland and Silesia, is an example of professionals who reliably perform their services, using the most modern equipment.
Working with professionals, entrepreneurs can be sure that the entire painting process will be carried out taking into account the latest trends and technologies in the industry. This is a guarantee and confidence that the investment will bring the expected benefits.
