COATINGS & CORROSION CONTROL
GEV OFFSHORE
East of England based GEV Offshore Limited has been successful in acquiring the exclusive rights throughout the UK to offer the new and innovative anti-corrosion product known as Oxifree®.
Corrosion is a cross sector problem and is significant: “At US$1.8trillion, the annual cost of corrosion worldwide is over 3% of the world’s GDP*
Oxifree® is also reusable** and environmentally safe.
The product is applied using a range of application machines which are available to suit all scopes of work. Machines can operate all day, and yet do not require removal of material or cleaning when finished.
Surface preparation is minimal with wire brushing away any loose material or industrial wash if greasy and then apply providing 100% protection to a wide variety of equipment such as flanges, tappings, valves, bearings, inspection panels and much more.
Given the increasing corrosion problems being experienced across offshore wind farm installations, Oxifree is the perfect solution to help protect structures and ensure operational efficiency and safety in the renewable sector.

Oxifree® is being promoted as the ultimate solution to complex corrosion and contamination issues having been successfully tested by a number of Industry Giants, including RWE and BHP Billiton.
Using a method of encapsulation rather than coating, Oxifree® is a polymeric resin that is heat applied to enable total penetration and encapsulation of a range of items typically irregular shapes that otherwise are difficult to protect and therefore prone to corrosion.
Having undergone extensive testing to industry standard ASTM B117 (known as the “salt spray fog test”), the product achieved outstanding results approaching nearly 4x the benchmark.
