Surface protection and treatment

Novatio products offer effective protection against external influences. For example, Novafill Flex replaces traditional primer, filler and undercoat. So it is three products in one. It is handy and time-saving. And Nano Care Building makes your stone and concrete constructions water and dirt repellent.

    General info: 

    NOVA ZINC is a new scientific composition of pure zinc powder (99%), resins and other components. Applied to ferrous metals and aluminium it forms a tough but flexible zinc metal film, which by electrochemical action offers excellent protection against corrosion, even when the coating is scratched or worn down. There is an essential difference between NOVA ZINC and paint. Paint and primers protect by forming a "skin'.'
    NOVA ZINC however gives protection against corrosion by the galvanic action between zinc and iron. Electrochemically expressed : under the influence of water vapour and oxygen the zinc powder works as an anode and the metal under it as a cathode. Cathodic protection. Corrosion affects only the zinc and not the base metal. When a paint skin is damaged, corrosion will appear and will also run under the undamaged paint. If the NOVA ZINC coat gets damaged then unsoluble alkaline products (zinc salts) will be formed. In other words the injury recovers itself and thus continues protecting the suface further against corrosion, as opposed to paints and primers.

    Application information: 

    NOVA ZINC is a money-saving "tool',' indispensable in every industry, workshop and garage for its many applications:

    • repair of thermal galvanized surfaces damaged by welding, drilling, cutting or other treatments pumps, tanks and compressors in the chemical industry
    • protection of welded parts against corrosion
    • coastal and shipping installations which suffer from salt water
    • as replacements of hot galvanising
    • tidying up of weather beaten galvanised parts as undercoating for cars, trailers, heavy materials, …
    • other typical applications where NOVA ZINC has proved its value: hot water tanks and cables, equipment, transmission pylons, fences, railways and earth moving equipment, cooling towers, agricultural tools, aluminium windows and doors, roofs, discharge chutes, abattoir, laundry and car wash installations, oil refineries, outlet systems, bridges, steel frames, air conditioning, signaling and drilling installations, storage tanks and so on ...
