Northumberland's vast rural landscape supports a large number of agricultural estates, farm buildings, and rural steel structures that require regular shot blasting and protective coating to withstand the county's exposed, windswept climate. The county also has growing renewable energy infrastructure — including wind farm steelwork and substations — that requires specialist surface preparation and corrosion protection.
