PITTSBURGH — PPG Industries’ protective and marine coatings business has unveiled the PHENGUARD™ Pro tank coating system, which offers unrivaled benefits to shipyards and ship owners. For shipyards and at installation, the system provides potential efficiency gains of as much as 20 percent compared to traditional three-layer coating systems. For ship owners, it provides the widest chemical resistance and the longest carriage time on the market of more than 3,400 cargoes, delivering maximum flexibility to the product tanker trades.
Building on more than 40 years of successful practical experience, PPG designed the new Phenguard Pro system as a premium tank coating solution for use on IMO II and III chemical/product tankers typically in the 30,000-60,000 pennyweight range.
