The hidden cost of corrosion 

The cost of corrosion is enormous – over US $2.2 trillion annually. Add to that the carbon footprint of producing new steel to replace corroded steel structures.

At Hempel, we are committed to extending steel durability and reducing the environmental impact of assets. This is the basis for our development of Avantguard, a cutting-edge coating technology that provides the construction industry with superior corrosion prevention – solutions that push the limits of steel durability.
