About This Service

Specialist shot blasting for factory and industrial cladding panels. We remove original plastisol, multiple layers of paint, rust, and weathering from metal cladding to restore surfaces to bare metal condition. Our precision techniques preserve the integrity of cladding panels while creating flawless surfaces ready for new protective coatings, extending the life of your building envelope.

Project Gallery: Industrial Warehouse Cladding Restoration

This project showcases the complete transformation of severely deteriorated warehouse cladding. The before images reveal the extent of the challenge: rust-coloured panels with original plastisol coating, multiple layers of failed paint, extensive peeling, and decades of weathering across the entire building envelope.

Case Studies

Industrial Warehouse Cladding Restoration

Manufacturing Facility Owner

Challenge: This industrial warehouse had severely deteriorated cladding with original plastisol coating and multiple layers of paint that had failed over decades of exposure. The rust-coloured panels showed extensive peeling, corrosion, and weathering across hundreds of square metres. The client needed complete restoration to bare metal to prepare for a new protective coating system, but replacement would have been prohibitively expensive and caused major operational disruption.

Solution: We mobilised our specialist cladding blasting team to the site with full containment systems. Working systematically across the building envelope, we used controlled shot blasting techniques to remove all plastisol, paint layers, rust, and surface contaminants while preserving the structural integrity of the thin metal panels. Our precision approach ensured complete coating removal without damaging the substrate. The project was completed in phases to minimise disruption to the client's ongoing operations, with comprehensive dust control and waste management throughout.

Result: The warehouse cladding was transformed from severely deteriorated rust-coloured panels to clean, uniform bare metal surfaces ready for recoating. All plastisol and paint layers were completely removed, revealing sound substrate throughout. The client achieved a like-new surface finish at a fraction of the cost of panel replacement, extending the building envelope's service life by decades. The flawless preparation ensured optimal adhesion for the subsequent coating system, and the client was able to maintain operations throughout the project with minimal disruption.
