Factory & Warehouse Cladding

Professional Cladding Surface Restoration

Specialist shot blasting for factory and industrial cladding panels. We remove original plastisol, multiple layers of paint, rust, and weathering from metal...

Our Process

1. Site Assessment

We assess cladding condition, coating types, and access requirements to plan the most effective blasting approach.

2. Area Protection

Work zones are contained and protected to control blast media and prevent contamination of surrounding areas.

3. Controlled Blasting

Using appropriate pressure and media, we systematically remove all coatings while preserving the cladding substrate.

4. Surface Inspection

Cleaned panels are inspected to ensure complete coating removal and proper surface profile for recoating.

Applications

  • Factory wall cladding
  • Warehouse exterior panels
  • Industrial building facades
  • Commercial property cladding
  • Agricultural building cladding
  • Storage facility exteriors

What helps us price and plan a big cladding job

Factory cladding jobs are about more than removing old paint. We need to understand the building, access and what the next coating team needs from the surface.

What should I send for a factory cladding blasting enquiry?

Send photos of the elevations, any dimensions you have, the current coating condition, access details, what is happening around the building and the intended new coating system. That lets us start putting together a sensible route for the job.

Can you work around an operating factory or warehouse?

We will talk through access, working areas, protection of nearby operations and how the blast work needs to fit the wider refurbishment. The right set-up depends on the building and the way the site is running, so we plan it with you before work starts.

When to Choose Shot Blasting

Cladding replacement costs 5–10× more than shot blasting and repainting. For panels with sound substrate, blasting and recoating extends service life by 15–25 years and avoids the waste and disruption of full replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you blast cladding in place?

Yes, we can blast cladding panels while installed on buildings using specialized containment and access equipment, minimizing disruption to your operations.

Will shot blasting damage thin cladding panels?

No. Our experienced technicians use controlled pressure and appropriate blast media to remove coatings without damaging the underlying metal panels.

How long before cladding needs recoating after blasting?

We coordinate closely with coating contractors to apply new coatings within 24-48 hours of blasting to prevent surface oxidation and ensure optimal adhesion.
