Corrosion Protection in Bengaluru

Mythri Metallizing protects steel with a complete system comprising blasting, thermal spray zinc or aluminium, sealer and, where required, paint.

Selecting Protection for Bengaluru Steel

Steel in Bengaluru faces a milder atmosphere than on the coast, but not a harmless one. Monsoon humidity, fumes around the older industrial estates, and condensation inside sheds and tanks all initiate rust that spreads beneath paint.

For most structures in the city, the choice lies between a good paint system over blasted steel and metallizing with zinc or aluminium. Paint costs less initially, whereas metallizing lasts longer and suits steel that is difficult to reach for repainting.

Where both appearance and long service life matter, we apply a duplex system consisting of thermal spray zinc or aluminium, a sealer and a paint finish.

Assets We Protect Around Bengaluru

Structural steel and sheds

Building frames, trusses and roof structures for factories and warehouses.

Transformers and electrical equipment

Tanks, radiators and enclosures protected with zinc or a paint system.

Water and utility steel

Tanks, pipes and towers that remain wet for long periods.

Machine-tool and engineering shops

Castings and machine bases primed and finished before assembly.

One Team from Bare Steel to Final Coat

We agree the system with you before work begins, including the blast grade, the metal or primer, the sealer, and the paint coats and thicknesses. Where your consultant or paint supplier has issued a specification, we follow it.

The project then proceeds as a single sequence, at our facilities in Bengaluru or at your site. Each layer is tested before the next is applied, and the thickness and adhesion results are included in the project report.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should a Bengaluru structure be painted or metallized?
Paint suits steel that is easy to reach and can be repainted on a schedule. Metallizing suits steel that is difficult to reach, or where a long life before first maintenance is required. We recommend one on the basis of the location and the design life.
Can Mythri Metallizing take responsibility for the whole system?
Yes. One team blasts, sprays and paints, so there is no hand-over between contractors, and a single report covers every layer.
Can fabrications be protected before they leave the fabricator?
Yes. Fabrications may be delivered to our units for the full system and leave ready for erection, with only touch-up required after site welding.
