International Interzone 1000

International Interzone 1000 is a high build, low VOC, two component epoxy coating pigmented with chemically resistant lamellar glass flake, providing outstanding abrasion and corrosion resistance to steelwork located in the harshest offshore environments.

• Pack size: 18 litre unit

• Colours: Black, Grey, Yellow

Recommended Uses

International Interzone 1000 is ideal for the protection of steelwork in areas where high abrasion and corrosion resistance are required, including splashzone areas on offshore platforms, jetties, decks, bridges, chemical plants, pulp and paper mills, and water treatment plants.

Excellent resistance to cathodic disbondment gives good compatibility with both sacrificial anode and impressed current systems, making Interzone 1000 particularly suitable for the long term protection of sub-sea structures.

Interzone 1000 can be used as part of a non-slip deck system in conjunction with appropriate aggregate.
