With over 50 years experience in the manufacture and supply of pipeline coatings, 3M™ Scotchkote™ liquid coatings are suitable for the protection of new pipes carrying drinking water, dirty water, oil & gas, aviation fuel and refined petroleum products, as well as the insitu rehabilitation of existing potable water pipes.
Compliance to international standards ensures that Scotchkote materials can be used in most situations.
The Scotchkote™ liquid coatings compliment Scotchkote™ powders. 3M™ Scotchkote™ has been the primary global supplier of fusion bonded epoxy coating for pipelines since 1960, and has been used to coat more pipelines worldwide than any other fusion bonded epoxy product.
3M™ Scotchkote™ innovative rapid setting polymeric linings have been specifically formulated to reduce time and cost when rehabilitating existing potable water pipelines. To avoid shutting down water mains for long periods, utilising rapid curing materials provides a cost effective solution that leaves the pipes rehabilitated and minimises disruption to consumers, traffic and the environment.

Drinking Water
As the demand for clean drinking water increases worldwide and as resources diminish pipelines are increasingly used as a safe reliable means of transporting and distributing clean drinking water over long distances. 3M™ Scotchkote™ products meet UK and international requirements for contact with drinking water.

Sea water, raw water and waste water are often transported over long distances by use of large steel pipelines and locally by concrete channels. Typical applications include power stations, desalination plants and water treatment plants. The water to be transported can be very corrosive and a specifically designed internal lining is therefore required in order to provide long-term corrosion protection even in immersed service.
The operation and pumping costs of a gas pipeline are substantial and the capacity of gas delivered by the pipeline depends to a large degree on key design parameters; those being diameter and length. In recognising these factors, the concept of internally lining gas pipelines was developed, providing enhanced flow and thereby engendering a reduction in operational costs.
Oil transmission pipelines are a key element in the transport of fuel, key benefits of internally coated oil pipelines are, enhanced flow, inhibits bio-film build up, MIC and wax and hydrate formation, reduced pumping costs, corrosion protection in storage and improved commissioning.
3M™ Scotchkote™ offers both liquid and powder external coatings which meet the rigorous requirements of pipeline protection, including resistance to cathodic disbondment.
