The durability of our coatings regularly exceeds the warranty periods and justifies the investment in premium quality. Real lifetimes are based on documented long-term studies.
Proven service life in practice:
Superyacht paintwork: 15-20 years with proper care. High-quality polyurethane systems retain their shine and color intensity for decades.
Hull coatings: 12-18 years for anti-fouling systems, 20-25 years for corrosion protection. Professional maintenance extends the service life considerably.
Industrial plants: 20-30 years in chemically aggressive environments, 25-40 years under normal conditions. Petrochemical systems often still provide perfect protection after 25 years.
Offshore structures: 15-25 years despite extreme salt and weather exposure. Multi-layer systems with cathodic protection achieve exceptional durability.
Infrastructure: 25-50 years for bridges and public buildings. The right choice of system determines the durability over generations.
Factors influencing service life:
Surface preparation, coating thickness, ambient conditions, maintenance quality and load intensity.
Long-term monitoring: We document the performance of our coatings over many years and use this data for continuous system improvements.
