Overview

Trusted Coating. Safer Water.

Protech’s Waterarmor™ functional thermoplastic powders are the ideal solution for coating pipes used in the transport of potable water. These products are NSF 61 certified and free from Bisphenol A (BPA), emitting no harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Waterarmor™ coatings are formulated to provide excellent protection against UV exposure and are highly durable against weathering. They also provide excellent impact and chemical resistance.

WATERARMOR™ is formulated with a functionalized polyethylene copolymer that is controlled, tested, and certified for use in marine or water infrastructure. WATERARMOR™ powder coatings can be sprayed on or applied using a fluidized bed, and no primer is required for these coatings. Waterarmor™ powder coatings are proudly manufactured in North America.
