Valspar ramps up Pipeclad production in Europe

2/20/2018

Valspar Corporation is ramping up the production capacity of its Valspar Pipeclad epoxy powder products in Europe.


"Investing in the increased production of Valspar Pipeclad globally ensures that both applicators and pipeline owners around the world can continue to depend on Valspar to meet their growing needs," said Karl Jorgenrud, VP and general manager of Protective Coatings at Valspar. "Like our other powder coatings facilities, Thouars produces a range of high-quality, consistent coating products that are engineered to protect against corrosion in the harshest environments."


The Pipeclad products are designed to protect against corrosion on a wide variety of pipe sizes and wall thicknesses. It also protects against underground soil stress, bacteria and fungus attacks, soil acids and alklalis, saltwater, wastewater, petrochemicals, solvents and corrosive gases.


The company officially began expanding its Pipeclad line at its Thouars, France facility in April.


Pipeclad is currently produced in Asia, Europe and North and South America.
