Understanding Enviropeel

Enviropeel is a unique re-usable


thermoplastic barrier coating system that
has been proven to reduce the costs of
corrosion and wear by up to 95%. T H E R M O P L A S T I C S Y S T E M S

A durable, flexible material at normal temperatures, Enviropeel is melted in a specially designed mobile application
unit and sprayed as a liquid on to any size or shape of substrate, cooling to a solid in seconds. Built-in inhibitors are
released on to every surface, providing active protection, penetrating deep into every crevice and flowing round
every joint. The material forms a tough flexible cocoon around the target area providing an impermeable,
corrosion-inhibiting barrier that will protect for the lifetime of the system. Enviropeel is quick to apply,
environmentally friendly, easy to strip, re-usable and recyclable with no VOCs or harmful chemicals.
