Tufshield® coatings

Spray Coating & Painting

­Permali can apply Tufshield® elastomeric polyurethane and polyurea surface coating to the surface of almost any material, often applied prior to painting. Tufshield® coatings can be sprayed between 0.5mm to 25mm thick to create a durable, impact, erosion and wear resistant protective layer. The integrity of the composite component is maintained, even if the paint system is damaged due to Tufshield’s UV, moisture and chemical barrier properties.

­Permali has a fully equipped paint shop for the application of 2-pack epoxy and multi-pack polyurethane (PU) paint systems such as British Standard BS 381C & BS 4800 colours used by the Ministry of Defence, UK MOD Defence Standard (Def Stan) 80-208 paints and coatings and Royal Navy Warpaint specifications.

For the Defence sector, Permali can apply a specialty self-sealing outer protection layer to fuel tank systems for military combat vehicles. The BattleJacket® Fuel Cell Containment System is a revolutionary technology designed to minimise or prevent leakage from fuel tanks when subjected to small-arms fire; the thickness of coating can be varied to meet specific ballistic threat levels.
