Compliant Paint Systems for ISO 12944, NORSOK, MED and Highways Specifications


Industry Approved Systems are comprehensive coating solutions built around strict performance specifications, designed to ensure metal structures remain durable, safe, and compliant in demanding applications. These systems often include surface preparation products, primers, and topcoats selected and tested according to standards like NORSOK, Highways, ISO 12944, Network Rail, and MED. Depending on the sector, they provide protection from salt spray, weathering, mechanical abrasion, and chemical exposure—reducing downtime and extending the lifespan of critical infrastructure.

Where adhesion, surface tolerance, or corrosion resistance is critical, metal primers play a vital role in system performance. These are tailored to work with compatible topcoats for specific use cases such as offshore rigs, highways infrastructure, railway bridges, or marine vessels. Each approved system is tested against its relevant standards to ensure fitness for purpose, whether on new builds or maintenance projects in highly regulated industries.

Industry Approved System FAQs


What does it mean when a coating system is “industry approved”?

An industry-approved coating system has been tested and certified to meet recognised standards such as NORSOK, ISO 12944, or Network Rail specifications. These approvals confirm the system’s suitability for protecting metal in demanding environments like offshore platforms, bridges, or railway infrastructure.

Can I use these systems on existing infrastructure, or are they only for new builds?

Industry Approved Systems can be used for both new construction and maintenance projects. With the correct surface preparation and compatible products—such as corrosion-resistant metal primers—they can extend the service life of existing metalwork significantly.

Are these systems suitable for DIY or general domestic use?

Generally, no. These systems are formulated for industrial, commercial, or infrastructure applications and often require specific application methods, surface preparation standards, and performance requirements. For home or light trade use, explore high-performance metal paints suited to domestic projects.
