Fast-drying coating helps deliver ahead of schedule
With Hempel fast-dry coatings, Buijsse International was able to deliver ahead of schedule, even in the cold months of winter.
Last year Norwegian group Yara International – the world’s leading producer of nitrates, calcium nitrate, NPKs and global number two in ammonia – began the construction of a new Urea section at their plant in Sluiskil, an investment of €250 million. With ammonia, nitric acid, urea and nitrate granulation plants, Sluiskil houses Europe’s largest installed ammonia and nitrate fertiliser capacities.
Buijsse International is based in Lokeren. Thanks to their 20,000m² of conditioned production halls and their highly-qualified coating teams, Buijsse aims to be the benchmark in terms of industrial surface coating and protection. In accordance with Yara’s project requirements, the steelwork construction was transported to site immediately after coating in winter at temperatures sometimes below 0°C, a challenge which Buijsse, with its vast experience in the chemical, construction, infrastructure and offshore sectors, was able to accomplish to perfection.
