How Much Does Epoxy Bund Lining Cost?
Epoxy bund lining costs typically range from £50 to £80 per square metre. The final price depends on factors such as the size of the area, the condition of the existing surface, and specific chemical resistance requirements, which might involve selecting between standard or highly chemical-resistant epoxy resins.
Surface preparation may include shot blasting or diamond grinding to ensure proper adhesion, which can affect overall costs. Projects involving complex geometries or access restrictions may incur additional expenses due to the use of specialised equipment or techniques.
We employ professional grade spray equipment for uniform application, ensuring compliance with environmental and safety standards like ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. Additional costs may arise for preparatory work or specialised coatings.

What Are the Benefits of Epoxy Bund Lining?
Epoxy bund lining offers numerous advantages for your facility, ensuring safety, compliance, and efficiency. This protective coating is highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals, such as acids, alkalis, and solvents, making it especially suitable for chemical manufacturing plants, pharmaceutical companies, and wastewater treatment facilities.
Chemical Resistance: Protects against spills and leaks of various chemicals, minimising the risk of environmental contamination and safeguarding health.
Durability: Offers long-lasting protection, typically lasting over 10 years, even in challenging industrial environments. The thickness of the epoxy lining can range from 1.5mm to 3.0mm, based on specific infrastructure needs.
Compliance: Ensures facilities meet safety and environmental regulations like ISO 9001 and the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) regulations.
Easy Maintenance: Smooth surfaces simplify cleanup and maintenance, reducing downtime for repairs and allowing quick inspection and swift remedial actions if required.
These benefits help maintain a safe and compliant industrial environment. Get in touch to discover how our service can enhance your facility's safety standards.
How Long Does Epoxy Bund Lining Take to Install?
The installation of epoxy bund lining usually takes two to five days, depending on the area size and surface condition. Typically, surface preparation methods are crucial, involving grinding or shot blasting to ensure adhesion.
This process addresses issues like cracks or contamination and can affect installation time. In addition, the climate plays a role: cooler temperatures may extend the curing period.
Once the epoxy is applied, additional curing time, typically 24 to 48 hours, is needed before the facility can resume operation. Factors such as humidity levels and ventilation within the facility can impact this curing period.
We ensure compliance with relevant standards such as BS 8204 for flooring and bunding systems, offering a high level of protection against chemical spills.
By planning, you can minimise disruption to your operations. Contact us for a tailored schedule that suits your requirements.
How Do I Maintain Epoxy Bund Lining?
Maintaining epoxy bund lining involves several key steps to ensure its integrity and longevity. Regular visual inspections should be conducted, ideally every three to six months, to check for any signs of wear or damage such as cracks or discolouration.
Use mild, pH-neutral detergents for cleaning, avoiding harsh chemicals like acids or solvents that may damage the lining. Rinsing with warm water can help remove build-ups of dirt and debris.
Promptly address any damage, such as small chips or scratches, by applying an epoxy repair kit specifically designed for bund linings to prevent larger issues.
Monitoring the bund's effectiveness involves checking for leaks or seepage during inspections, ensuring the lining continues to form a barrier against potentially hazardous substances. Regular maintenance not only helps prolong the lifespan of the lining but also optimises its chemical resistance capabilities.
If you have any concerns about maintenance or repairs, contact us for professional assistance.
