When Is Chemical Bund Lining Needed?

Chemical bund lining becomes essential in environments where hazardous chemicals are stored or used. Regulation compliance, such as adhering to Environment Agency standards, often necessitates our services to ensure safety and environmental protection.

Our services are particularly crucial when existing linings develop visible cracks, blistering, or other deterioration signs, which could lead to leaks. Common indicators include discolouration and exposed substrate, suggesting chemical degradation.

We employ diverse materials, such as epoxy and polyurethane coatings, which provide varying degrees of chemical resistance and flexibility. These coatings are applied using spray equipment to ensure uniform coverage and protective thickness.

Regular bund integrity assessments can also highlight potential failures before they occur. Industries like pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and manufacturing frequently require bund lining to maintain safe storage conditions for solvents, acids, and other corrosive substances.

How Does Chemical Bund Lining Work?

Our process ensures thorough and effective protection in four steps:

Assessment: We begin by evaluating the existing condition of your bunds, checking for any cracks, damage, or imperfections that may affect the lining process. This initial inspection uses ultrasonic thickness gauges to measure current wall integrity and identify areas requiring repair.
Planning: Tailored lining solutions are designed based on the specific needs of your bund system. We consider factors such as the type of chemicals stored, temperature variations, and environmental conditions. Our plans adhere to standards like ISO 9001, ensuring quality and efficacy.
Application: We use materials such as epoxy and polyurethane for durability. These substances provide chemical resistance and flexibility. Our application methods, including spray or roller techniques, are chosen based on the bund type and size to ensure even distribution.
Testing: We conduct integrity tests post-application, employing hydrostatic and vacuum testing to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements. These tests confirm that your bund is reliable and ready for use.

This methodical approach guarantees that each bund is optimised for the highest level of protection and durability. Contact us to protect your facility effectively.
