High specification structures require high specification protection. Providing the best protection requires grit blast surface preparation follows by spray applied zinc rich coatings. This needs to be airless spray applied using the latest technology to control coating film thicknesses.
Using the latest technology requires staff training to ensure equipment settings are optimised and all health and safety measures are in place. Omar Mahmood, Sigmat’s factory supervisor contacted Mick Warren from Spraytrain.com to provide training. Spraytrain.com are independent training providers established in 2004. The training provided was part theory and part practical. All the training was carried out at Sigmat Limited minimising any losses in production. The optimised settings also showed immediate savings in overspray and coating waste. This ensures a fast return on Sigmat’s training investment.
