Corrosion is one of the biggest long-term threats to industrial assets. It affects structural integrity, increases maintenance costs and shortens the lifespan of critical infrastructure.

Industrial corrosion protection helps prevent deterioration before it leads to costly repairs or operational disruption. With the right treatment and coating systems in place, businesses can protect steel assets and improve long-term reliability.

Winter doesn’t just affect one part of your facility - it impacts everything.

Cold temperatures, dry conditions, and seasonal wear place added pressure on roofs, coating systems, and structural protection. Small issues that go unnoticed now often become costly problems when conditions change.

From roofing and waterproofing to coatings, fireproofing, and access for maintenance - winter is where early intervention makes the biggest difference.

Protect your assets before minor issues escalate.

From the first coat in the yard to the final finish on site — this project was all about consistency.

DRAM Coatings worked alongside SE Steel and VIVA Projects on the RFP contract at Malibongwe Industrial Park, applying protective coatings to ±250 tons of structural steel.

Our team handled everything from the initial primer application to final on-site coatings and touch-ups after installation. The goal? To protect the steel, prevent corrosion, and ensure a clean, uniform finish across the entire structure.

Through careful preparation, attention to detail, and ongoing quality checks, we delivered a strong, durable Battleship Grey finish that will stand the test of time.

It’s not just about applying coatings — it’s about protecting the structure for the long run.

Most fire damage is not just about what burns. It is about what fails.

Structural steel can weaken quickly under heat. That shift changes how a building holds, how people move, and how much time is available to respond.

Intumescent fireproofing is designed to slow that process and maintain stability where it matters most.

Before You Install Solar, Strengthen What Sits Beneath It

Solar panels are a 20-year investment. But what about the roof carrying them?

Too often, businesses rush into solar installation without assessing the condition of their commercial roof. The result? Hidden leaks, structural strain, compromised warranties and expensive rework that could have been avoided.

Preparing your roof for solar isn’t optional. It’s strategic.

In this blog, we unpack:
- Why roof refurbishment should come before solar installation
- The risks of ignoring waterproofing and structural integrity
- How proper preparation protects both your building and your energy investment
- Why solar companies benefit from partnering with refurbishment specialists

If you’re planning a solar installation, start with the foundation.
