Aluminium Protective Coating

Advanced Protection for Coils, Heat Exchangers and Light Metals

Modern Thin-Film Corrosion Protection

Engineered over two decades to provide advanced rust prevention and long-term protection for machinery operating in harsh mining environments.

Replacing Traditional Hydrophilic Coatings

Traditionally, coils and heat exchangers have used hydrophilic coatings to maximise heat transfer. However, these conventional treatments accumulate dirt over time and require regular maintenance to prevent overheating and maintain efficiency. In addition, they do not provide corrosion resistance or self-cleaning functionality.

Global markets are now moving away from these older technologies and adopting advanced thin-film coating systems that improve both performance and equipment longevity. There is also increasing demand for maintenance-free operation throughout the full design life of appliances and industrial equipment.

Our advanced metal finishes provide:

  • Long-term corrosion resistance
  • Consistent heat transfer efficiency
  • Reduced maintenance requirements
  • Self-cleaning surface performance
  • Extended equipment lifespan

*PrimoBarrier SS-102 -coated light metals enable appliances and equipment to operate efficiently throughout their lifecycle without the risk of overheating caused by dirt build-up or coil deterioration.

*PrimoBarrier SS-102 is a proprietary coating developed specifically for the use of Heat Pump Coatings and associated companies 

Why choose PrimoBarrier SS-102 for superior rust prevention and long-lasting protection?

PrimoBarrier is proven to prevent rust forming on trains and trucks worldwide often in the harshest of environments

Fast Application

Designed for high-volume manufacturing environments.

Simple 3-Step Process
  1. Alkaline clean
  2. Spray or dip application
  3. Thermal cure in minutes

The rapid process minimises labour and production costs while delivering a durable protective finish.

New Zealand’s harsh coastal environment constantly attacks metal surfaces, making advanced corrosion protection essential.

Moving Beyond Traditional Hydrophilic Coatings

Traditional hydrophilic coatings used on coils and heat exchangers attract dirt and contamination over time, reducing efficiency and increasing maintenance requirements.

Our advanced thin-film technology provides:

  • Corrosion resistance
  • Self-cleaning performance
  • Reduced maintenance
  • Improved service life
Maintenance-Free Performance
PrimoBarrier Coated Light Metals Deliver:
  • Consistent heat transfer
  • Protection in harsh environments
  • Reduced operating costs
  • Longer equipment life
  • Lower maintenance requirements
  • Reduced overheating risk

The self-cleaning surface helps minimise dirt build-up and maintain system efficiency.

Corrosion: A Cause of AC Failure

Corrosion contributes to approximately 40% of air conditioning system failures.

Outdoor units are constantly exposed to:

  • Moisture
  • Humidity
  • Salt air
  • Environmental contaminants

Over time, corrosion damages condenser and evaporator coils, reducing efficiency and reliability.

Common Corrosion Problems
  • Refrigerant leaks
  • Reduced cooling performance
  • Ice build-up on coils
  • Compressor overheating
  • Increased energy use
  • System failure

Corrosion also creates an insulating layer that restricts heat exchange, forcing systems to work harder which equals higher running costs

Protect It Before It Starts

Advanced thin-film coatings create a durable barrier against:

  • Moisture
  • Salt exposure
  • Pollution
  • Environmental contaminants
The Result
  • Longer equipment life
  • Improved reliability
  • Lower maintenance costs
  • Better energy efficiency
  • Reduced overheating risk
  • Enhanced long-term performance

It doesn’t just prevent rust — it also helps prevent ice from forming.

More than just rust protection — advanced technology that helps prevent corrosion and ice build-up.
