Cargo Tanks
Proven to protect against even the most aggressive cargoes, our cargo tank coatings eliminate contamination and are easy to clean, so you can switch cargos and trading patterns with greater efficiency.
Your cargo tank coating protects your tank against harmful cargos and corrosion to reduce maintenance and ensure a long service life. But for real operational efficiency, it should also eliminate contamination between cargos and be easy to clean – so you can reduce your turnaround times and quickly switch between cargos as the market demands.
Built on proven technology, our pure epoxy, phenolic epoxy and zinc silicate-based cargo tank coatings do just that.
Why choose a cargo tank coating from Hempel?
Resistance to chemicals and corrosion
You get outstanding resistance to even the most aggressive liquid cargos for a longer lifetime and lower maintenance.
Operational efficiency
Resistant to absorption and easy to clean, our cargo tank coatings help ensure you have faster turnaround times and more time at sea.
Any time, any place application
Shipyard requirements vary from region to region. Our coatings are tailored to the particular needs of specific countries to ensure you get the most efficient application process possible.
Application flexibility
You can apply our cargo tank coatings all year round in hot, cold and humid climates – and they cure fast, too. This means quicker turnaround times and lower maintenance costs for you.
Full certified
Our cargo tank coatings conform to IMO/PSPC rules for cargo tanks and are FDA compliant for liquid foodstuff cargos.
