ISO 9001:2015
Industrial Fuel Systems Painting Contractors
Fuel tanks and pipelines are exposed to the heat, rain, and cold daily. Without the right protective coating, you’re gambling with safety risks and costly repairs.
At Vulcan Painters, we handle industrial tank painting, pipeline coatings, and fuel tank protection for quality-critical systems that can’t afford to shut down or fail.
Whether you’re working with aboveground storage tanks or pipelines, our industrial painting solutions protect your tanks and pipelines while ensuring full compliance with regulatory standards and specification requirements.
Additionally, we're certified across the board with various AMPP and ISO 9001:2015 standards guiding how we prep, coat, and inspect every project.
Why Industrial Tank & Pipeline Coatings Are Essential
- Corrosion Protection: Protective coatings seal out water, oxygen, and other elements that can cause corrosion, weaken the structural integrity, and shorten the life span of your pipelines and concrete and steel tanks.
- Chemical Resistance: We provide specialized fuel system coating services tailored to the product you're storing or transporting, whether it's diesel, gasoline, jet fuel, or ethanol blends. These coatings resist permeation, softening, and blistering, ensuring the tank lining maintains its integrity over time.
- Leak Prevention: Protective coatings reinforce the tank’s surface by sealing cracks, joints, and other potential weak points. This reduces the risk of leaks that can lead to accidents, environmental hazards, costly repairs, unplanned downtime, or regulatory fines.
- Environmental Safety: A protective coating is your first line of defense against leaking fuel or chemicals that can contaminate soil, poison groundwater, and harm wildlife.
- Regulatory Compliance: Vulcan's coatings and application methods meet EPA, OSHA, and NFPA standards for safety and containment, so you spend less time worrying about violations and more time focusing on production.
Industries Served
Oil & Gas Facilities
We apply coatings above and below ground to protect your tanks and pipeline from extreme temperatures, harsh weather, and corrosive soils, ensuring safer storage and conveyance and a longer service life.
Power Plants & Energy Sector
Tanks in power plants often store aggressive chemicals or fuels, and many operate under high heat or pressure. Our coatings are built to last in these tough conditions, protecting surfaces from chemical damage, temperature changes, and wear.
Manufacturing & Industrial Facilities
Our specialized coatings are chosen based on chemical exposure, service temperature, and mechanical stress to address specific threats in each facility, protect equipment, and reduce production downtime.
Transportation & Logistics Terminals
Tanker trucks and fuel terminals deal with constant loading, unloading, and movement, making them vulnerable to leaks and damage. Our coatings add a layer of protection to keep your systems sealed and extend service life across the supply chain.
Agriculture & Chemical Plants
Liquid fertilizers, pesticides, and other agricultural chemicals are rough on metal. Our corrosion-resistant industrial tank coatings create a barrier against chemical exposure to keep your tanks and pipelines in perfect condition and within safety standards.
Military Fuel Systems
We apply fuel-resistant linings and durable exterior coatings that guard against permeation, abrasion, and UV damage. By adhering to strict compliance standards and coordinating work around operations, we keep fueling infrastructure mission-ready while minimizing downtime and extending service life.
Services Offered
We offer a comprehensive range of industrial coating services tailored to fuel systems, pipelines, chemical tanks, and more.
Industrial Tank Painting
We apply protective coatings that are specifically selected for the environment and material of your tank. Whether it’s a chemical storage unit, fuel tank, or groundwater tank, the goal of our storage tank painting is to prevent corrosion before it starts and preserve structural integrity, all in accordance with industry standards and environmental safety protocols.
Fuel Tank Painting Contractors
We’ve worked on aboveground tanks exposed to sun, rain, and freeze/thaw cycles, as well as underground tanks where moisture, soil acidity, and backfill pressure are constant concerns. In both cases, we use fuel-resistant primers and topcoats designed for hydrocarbon exposure. We also check for early signs of coating failure, like blistering, delamination, or pinholes, which can lead to bigger issues if left unchecked.
Industrial Pipeline Coating Services
Our coating and painting services protect your pipeline inside and out. Whether the pipes are buried, underwater, or above ground, we use durable materials like zinc, epoxy, urethane, and multi-layer systems to protect them from corrosion, chemicals, and changes in pressure or temperature.
Surface Preparation Services
Before we apply paint, we use abrasive blasting, power washing, power tools, and chemical cleaning to clear away rust, grime, and old paint, giving the new coating a properly cleaned surface to stick to.
Tank Lining Solutions
We apply epoxy and polymer linings to protect the inside of your tanks from corrosion and chemical contamination. Our pipeline and tank coating solutions are selected based on the tank’s contents and operating conditions to ensure compatibility and long-term reliability.
Inspection & Maintenance Services
We inspect your tank regularly, recommend targeted repairs, and perform maintenance work that keeps your tanks and pipelines operating safely and efficiently.
Certifications & Expertise
Each of our certifications is earned through a rigorous audit of our processes.
The certifications aren't just nice to have; they're part of how we train, plan, and work in the field. Here's how these credentials connect to our operations as industrial tank and pipeline painting contractors:
- AMPP QP1: Covers the field application of protective coatings in industrial and marine environments.
- AMPP QP2: Focuses on the safe removal of old or hazardous coatings, with full compliance to health, safety, and environmental regulations.
- AMPP QP3: Focuses on shop painting operations, emphasizing rigorous standards for surface preparation, coating application, and inspection within controlled environments.
- AMPP QP8: Ensures contractors have the organizational structures and technical skills to install polymer coatings on concrete in institutional, industrial, and commercial environments.
- AMPP QP9: Focused on architectural coatings for commercial or institutional buildings such as retail stores, public housing, colleges, libraries, and warehouses.
- AMPP QS 1: Builds upon ISO 9001 by requiring contractors to adopt stricter quality management and documentation practices.
- ISO 9001:2015: This international benchmark for quality management ensures we consistently follow best practices as part of our everyday work.
Case Studies or Project Examples
A leading fabricator brought in Vulcan Painters to help upgrade an oil pipeline.
For the underground piping, weld joints were sealed using a 100% epoxy joint compound delivered via cartridge gun. The above-ground spools were coated with an epoxy primer followed by a polyurethane coating finish, both applied using airless spray equipment. These coating procedures supported the overall upgrade of both above-ground and underground pipeline infrastructure.
This project is just one example of how Vulcan Painters delivers expert coating solutions for demanding industrial needs, protecting critical assets and extending service life.
