A protective coating for bund walls area/bund wall needs to provide a high level of chemical resistance in order to protect surrounding groundwater and areas from potentially dangerous liquids spilling or leaking out. This can include petrols, diesels, chemicals, acids, alkalis and more. To ensure this is achieved a robust, chemical-resistant and impermeable lining is required to safeguard the area against any leaks or damage from these substances.

NCC can offer a wide range of chemical and solvent-free epoxy resin coatings and lining materials which are ideal for forming protective linings in your bund area. Our range includes the highly chemically resistant vinyl ester based lining system Belzona 4361 which offers some of the highest levels of chemical resistance available and also has outstanding abrasion and wear properties. We have a selection of glass flake reinforced epoxy systems which can be used for even higher chemical resistance requirements in specific circumstances and environments – please see our resins page for more information.

Guarding Against Leaks: Exploring the Benefits of Effective Bund Wall Protective Coatings

For bund walls and other concrete surfaces that require a high level of strength as well as excellent chemical resistance, we can also use polyurea. This can be hot spray applied and cures in seconds providing a tough, durable and impermeable surface. This can be particularly useful for re-lining concrete bund walls where movement is expected as it will move in sympathy with the concrete rather than cracking and failing like traditional epoxies would do.
