An industrial fan company with over 50 years of history just took on an overseas order — but as soon as the shipment arrived, the client refused to accept the goods!

Why?

Because right off the ship, the fans were completely rusted!

They had used a traditional anti-corrosion system

designed only for C4-level environments,

but once exposed to CX-level marine salt and humidity, the coating completely failed.

Even with a 300μm film thickness, it didn’t stand a chance.

Our advice to export clients:

Don’t just focus on coating thickness — you must match the corrosion protection level to the shipping environment!

✅ We recommend using a graphene-based low surface treatment primer system

✔️ Excellent adhesion

✔️ Outstanding salt spray resistance

✔️ Reliable performance during long-distance transport, even in CX marine conditions — no peeling, no rusting
