Projects

A 600-tonne project involving two large span steel bridge sections over the busy Kwinana Freeway, Aubin Grove train station required a long-term coatings solution to provide barrier protection, UV stability and graffiti resistance.

Bendigo Freeway Extension Overpass is prtected against spalling and graffiti attack by the use of Durebild STE surface tolerant epoxy adn Acrathane IF, a two pack epoxy acrylic with excellent resistance to graffiti removal agents.

The precast concrete panels of Buckley St Essendon Rail Underpass require heavy duty protection against concrete carbonation (the major cause of concrete spalling) and defacement by graffiti. The coating system of Durebild STE surface tolerant epoxy, and topcoats Weathermax HBR (coloured polyurethane), Quantum FX (metallic polyurethane) and Quantum Clearcoat (clear gloss polyurethane) offers both, with eye-popping results! The concrete panels were painted in shop, then erected on site.

For the Canberra Metro light rail, galvanised and mild steel elements required a premium, low maintenance finish. Quantum V92 delivered on the aesthetics and durability. Duremax GPE ZP and Zincanode 402 provided corrosion resistance.

All Victorian motorists and many visitors too know this giant column towering over Melbourne's CityLink toll road. But here's something you might not know: it's painted in its very own Dulux Protective Coatings colour.

In May 2012, The CityLink Red Sticks, part of the Melbourne Gateway, were repainted in Dulux Durebild STE and Weathermax HBR in a special process colour called CityLink Cherry Red. On September 11, 2017, over 5 years after the coating system was applied, the retained colour standard was measured in several areas on the north facing side of the Red Sticks. The largest ΔE value recorded was a mere 2.35. According to AS/NZS 2728:2013 Table 2.4, an "acceptable colour change" over a four year period is a ΔE of 5.0.
