Tank Coatings and Linings
We Install and Inspect Industrial Tank Coatings & Linings
At Industrial Paint Company Depot, we specialize in tank coatings and tank lining services designed to protect your critical infrastructure, minimize downtime, and extend the service life of your storage tanks, wastewater basins, and chemical processing vessels. For over 70 years, our vetted network of contractors has delivered high-performance, specification-driven solutions for some of the most complex lining projects in North America.
Whether you’re managing a steel tank retrofit or specifying a lining system for new construction, we provide end-to-end support—from surface preparation and formulation to installation and inspection.
Why Protective Coatings and Linings Matter
Industrial tanks are continuously exposed to aggressive environments including corrosive chemicals, high temperatures, and abrasive solids. Without proper protective coatings, these conditions can lead to corrosion, leakage, and structural failure—costing your operation money, safety, and compliance.
Our Solutions Provide:
- Corrosion Resistance: Prevents degradation from chemical exposure, water, and oxygen.
- Abrasion Resistance: Protects against wear caused by solids, agitation, and high-velocity flow.
- Chemical Resistance: Safeguards against acids, solvents, and alkalis.
- Regulatory Compliance: Our coatings meet FDA, NSF, and industry-specific safety standards.
- Long-Term Durability: Extend the usable life of steel tanks, concrete substrates, and stainless steel vessels.
Specialized Tank Coating and Lining Systems
We work with a wide range of coating systems and lining products tailored to the needs of each tank’s application and environment.
1. Epoxy Coatings & Linings
Our epoxy coating systems offer superior adhesion, excellent chemical resistance, and long-term performance. We install epoxy linings across a variety of sectors including potable water, food-grade storage, and aggressive chemical containment.
Common epoxy options include:
- High-solids epoxy for low-VOC environments
- Flake-filled epoxy for added abrasion resistance
- Novolac epoxy for extreme chemical resistance
2. Polyurethane Coatings
Our polyurethane systems provide impact resistance and flexibility for tanks exposed to vibration or movement. Suitable for potable water, wastewater, and outdoor applications, polyurethane is UV-resistant and ideal for high-performance environments.
3. Vinyl Ester and Phenolic Linings
Used in chemical processing and wastewater tanks, vinyl ester and phenolic linings withstand harsh acids, elevated temperatures, and solvents where other coatings fail.
4. Glass-Fused-to-Steel & Specialty Coatings
We also offer Sherwin-Williams and other manufacturer-approved tank lining materials that include glass-fused and ceramic-reinforced systems for long-term, low-maintenance performance.
Applications We Serve
- Municipal Water & Wastewater: Water tank linings that meet NSF and potable water standards
- Food & Beverage: FDA-compliant epoxy for sanitary tanks
- Oil & Gas: Epoxy and vinyl ester solutions for hydrocarbon storage
- Manufacturing & Chemical Plants: Custom-engineered lining systems for high-temperature, aggressive media
- Marine & Coastal Tanks: Zinc-rich primers and flake systems to combat saltwater corrosion
Our Coating Technologies
We utilize industry-best practices and modern application techniques to ensure optimal results on every lining project:
- High-solids spray systems for uniform coverage
- Dual-layer coating systems for combined abrasion and chemical resistance
- Self-priming epoxies and specialty polymer blends for tough substrates
- Thermal spray and reinforced overlays for extreme applications
Inspection, Maintenance & Reapplication
Every tank lining system we install comes with a long-term inspection plan that includes:
- Holiday Testing
- Ultrasonic Thickness Checks
- Adhesion Verification
- Visual Inspections for blistering, delamination, or wear
