Port Pirie Sports Precinct – Shade Sail Structure Protection
Weathersafe Shades, a leader in outdoor shade solutions, once again partnered with Arkote to protect the structural posts at the Port Pirie Sports Precinct. This project highlights our strong partnership and shared dedication to high-quality, long-lasting solutions.
For this installation, Weathersafe relied on Arkote’s Tuffkote powder coating system, chosen for its durability and eco-friendly properties, ensuring the posts stay strong and visually appealing for years.
Durable Coatings for Outdoor Structures
Outdoor structures, such as shade sails, are continuously exposed to harsh weather conditions, including intense sun, wind, and rain. Without proper protection, the metal components used in these installations are prone to rust, corrosion, and fading, threatening both the longevity and aesthetics of the project.
Arkote applied its durable Tuffkote powder coating system to the structural steel posts supporting the shade sails. This advanced powder coating system offers several benefits:
-
Exceptional Durability: Tuffkote provides superior resistance to surface wear, even in environments with heavy weather.
-
UV Protection: It shields the posts from fading or discoloration caused by prolonged sun exposure, maintaining their finish.
-
Eco-Friendly Solution: Tuffkote is free from harmful solvents and VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), contributing to a greener, safer environment.
-
Low Maintenance: Structures coated with Tuffkote require minimal upkeep, ensuring long-term performance without constant repairs.
Arkote’s skilled team ensured precise application of the Tuffkote coating, with a focus on quality and attention to detail. The result? A robust, visually appealing finish that guarantees the posts will remain protected for years, even under harsh environmental conditions.
