Controlled Surface Preparation

Effective coating performance begins with correct preparation.

Our blast processes are designed to remove:

• Corrosion and scale
• Surface contaminants and debris
• Residual coatings
• Surface imperfections

Proper surface preparation ensures optimal coating adhesion, structural protection, and long-term durability under mining and heavy industry conditions.

All preparation works are completed within a controlled workshop environment to maintain consistency, safety, and quality assurance.

Protective Coating Application

Following preparation, we apply industrial-grade protective coating systems suited to the asset’s operating environment and service requirements.

Our coating services include:

• Structural equipment painting
• Component refinishing
• Full machine refurbishment coatings
• Corrosion protection systems
• Heavy-duty industrial protective finishes

Each coating application is executed with attention to durability, finish quality, and environmental performance.

Polymer Coated Lining Systems & Shutdown Capability

KBX Mechanical also delivers polymer coating and lining application services supporting corrosion protection and wear management programs in high-demand operating environments.

Our team has mobilised dedicated coating crews during major shutdown operations, delivering polymer lining programs under structured planning and strict operational controls.

Our polymer coating capability supports:

• Corrosion-resistant lining systems
• Wear-resistant protective coatings
• High-abrasion structural protection
• Shutdown-based coating programs
• Multi-trade integration within compressed timeframes

Polymer lining applications are managed under controlled preparation standards to ensure proper adhesion, curing performance, and long-term durability in harsh industrial conditions.

Integrated Refurbishment Capability

Our paint, blast, and coating services integrate seamlessly with our engine rebuild, fabrication, and full refurbishment programs.

This coordinated workflow ensures:

• Reduced contractor fragmentation
