Epoxy Zinc Rich Primer and Steel Structure Coating System: A Practical Design Guide

In most industrial projects, coating failure does not happen because the coating product is poor quality. It happens because the steel structure coating system — from epoxy zinc rich primer selection through to topcoat specification — was never properly designed as a coordinated system. A primer selected by habit, a topcoat chosen for appearance, and […]

Intumescent Fireproof Coating for Steel: 60/90/120 Min Rating Guide

For structural engineers and project managers, “fireproofing” isn’t just about buying a can of paint—it’s about meeting a specific legal Fire Resistance Rating (FRR) of 60, 90, or 120 minutes. The thickness of the intumescent coating determines whether a steel beam holds up or collapses during a fire. HUILI Coating provides certified thin-film intumescent coating […]

Anti-Corrosion Coating for Steel Structures: How to Choose

Introduction In steel structure projects—whether industrial plants, warehouses, bridges, or offshore facilities—corrosion is rarely an unexpected problem. What often causes serious failure is choosing the wrong anti-corrosion coating system at the beginning. Many projects rely on “standard practice” or price-driven decisions: a generic epoxy primer, a topcoat that looks acceptable, and minimal surface preparation. These […]

Steel Structure Coating Inspection Checklist: Surface Prep, DFT, Recoat Interval & Touch-Up

A steel structure coating system only performs as designed when surface preparation, application conditions, and inspection records are strictly controlled. For industrial anti-corrosion projects, a clear inspection checklist shortens supplier evaluation, reduces rework risk, and ensures long-term protection. HUILI provides not just coatings, but the technical guidance needed to apply them correctly. 1) Pre-job checklist […]
