The challenge

Maharashtra State Electricity Transmission Company (MSETCL), one of the largest state transmission utilities in India, wanted high quality maintenance painting and protective coating at several sites. The sites see monsoon rain alternating with dry seasons. Near the shore, high humidity and the diffusion of carbon dioxide and chlorides raise durability concerns.

The DCP solution

DCP proposed Repcoat FF, a decorative, waterproof, acrylic based anti-carbonation coating. It combines a good finish with durability, anti-carbonation and waterproofing in one product. The client chose it over offers from large paint manufacturers.

The client chose Repcoat FF for these sites and for future projects.
