Industrial Coating Services
FASTEC provides industrial coating services across Nova Scotia and Atlantic Canada, protecting critical assets in demanding marine and industrial environments.
Coating Inspections
Independent, certified oversight to ensure coating systems meet design intent, regulatory requirements, and long-term performance expectations.
Surface Preparation
The critical process of cleaning and conditioning substrates to ensure proper coating adhesion, performance, and longevity, forming the foundation of any successful protective coating system.
Abrasive Blasting
A critical surface preparation process used to remove corrosion, old coatings, and contaminants, creating a clean, profiled surface that allows protective coatings to bond properly and perform as intended.
Tank
Liners
Specialized protective systems applied to the interior of tanks to prevent corrosion, leakage, and chemical damage, extending the service life of storage and containment assets while maintaining safety and regulatory compliance.
Marine Coatings
High-performance protective systems designed to shield vessels and marine structures from corrosion, abrasion, and constant exposure to saltwater and harsh weather, ensuring safety, durability, and long-term performance.
Concrete & Industrial Coatings
Provide durable protection for floors, structures, and equipment exposed to heavy use, chemicals, and harsh environments, helping prevent deterioration, improve safety, and extend the life of critical assets.
Fire Proofing
Involves applying specialized protective coatings to structural steel and critical components to slow heat transfer during a fire, helping maintain structural integrity, meet fire-rating requirements, and enhance overall safety.
Belzona Repairs
Uses advanced polymer composites to rebuild and protect damaged metal or concrete without hot work, providing a fast, durable solution that extends asset life and minimizes downtime in industrial and marine environments.
Industrial Coating Services That Protect Your Assets
Protective coatings help extend the life of critical assets by shielding them from corrosion, abrasion, and environmental damage—reducing maintenance costs, improving safety, and ensuring long-term performance in demanding marine and industrial environments.
