On-site coating and corrosion inspection

We inspect where the structure stands: condition surveys, execution control and independent expert opinions in industrial environments.

ON-SITE INSPECTION // COATING THICKNESS MEASUREMENT ON PYLONS

Typical sites

Energy sector, transmission towers

Condition surveys of galvanised and painted steel structures, definition of maintenance coating systems.

Bridges and transport structures

Layer analysis, adhesion and film thickness checks, assessment by corrosivity category.

Industrial halls, steel frames

Inspection of shop and site painting, failure analysis, specification of repair technology.

Tanks and tank farms

Testing of internal and external coatings, evaluation for chemical resistance and service load.

How we work

  1. 01

    Site walk-through

    Recording the structure, environmental load and damage pattern with photo documentation.

  2. 02

    Coating thickness and adhesion measurement on site

    Film thickness, adhesion, surface characteristics and climatic data measurement.

  3. 03

    Laboratory feedback

    Sampling and accredited laboratory testing where needed to confirm on-site findings.

  4. 04

    Test report and expert opinion

    QUALILAKK issues a test report on accredited on-site measurements. Expert evaluation – including recommended coating systems or repair technologies – is issued separately by Festékipari Kutató Kft. as an expert opinion.

Where needed, on-site results are complemented by accredited laboratory testing. The full scope of our accredited on-site tests is listed in the accreditation register.
