Looking for a reliable partner working in accordance with ISO 12944?
At Kamps Straalbedrijf, we specialize in applying coating systems in compliance with ISO 12944 standards. This ensures long-lasting protection of metal structures against corrosion, tailored to the environmental exposure of your specific project.

What is ISO 12944?

ISO 12944 is the international standard for corrosion protection of steel through protective paint systems. It applies to steel structures in various environments, such as industrial installations, bridges, offshore constructions, and structural steelwork. ISO 12944 is divided into different corrosion categories (C1 to CX) and durability classifications (low, medium, high, very high).

When determining the right coating system, the following factors are considered:

• The environment (indoor, outdoor, industrial, marine)

• The desired service life (e.g. 15+ years without major maintenance)

• The type of structure and intended use

Our Approach

We deliver custom coating systems that fully comply with the requirements of ISO 12944, including:

• Surface preparation according to ISO 8501-1

• Coating thickness and system verification

• Full documentation and quality reporting
