Sigma Coatings
Global service, international reputation – whatever
your need for coatings and antifouling, Sigma Coatings has you covered
Sigma Coatings traces its origins to the early
18th century. Though one of the oldest, it is part of one of the most
progressive and innovative coatings manufacturers in the world. Today
Sigma Coatings aims to develop, manufacture and supply the world’s
finest products and deliver them around the globe with the best customer
service. Sigma Coatings has gained an international reputation for reliability
of both products and services.
Products, attitude and infrastructure
In markets that are subject to increasingly stringent environmental and
legislative constraints, combined with tougher economic challenges, Sigma
believes it has the products, attitude and infrastructure in place to
guarantee success for its customers and their projects, wherever in the
world they may be.
Sigma Coatings has an enviable reputation in the field
of tank coatings (Sigma Phenguard is still the tank coating with the widest
spectrum of resistance to cargoes carried in ships) and has experience
in the wide use of epoxy coatings (with products such as Sigma CM coating
and Sigma Multimastic). Recent introductions to the Sigma Coatings marine
product range include SigmaPrime, an innovative multipurpose epoxy primer
for use at newbuilding stage.
The subject of TBT-free antifouling products is very topical
in 2003, and Sigma Coatings has launched a new product based on the polymer
technology developed for and used in Sigma AlphaGen, but one that is now
focused on deep-sea vessels with drydocking intervals up to three years.
This new product, Sigma AlphaTrim, makes economic sense for owners seeking
higher performance levels, with the cost advantage further improved by
application in only one coat on approved substrates.
Continuing research
Sigma Coatings continues to devote research resources to both environmental
issues and to improving and optimising the shipbuilding and ship maintenance
process.
