Mining Paint & Coatings Solutions by Cloverdale Paint

Cloverdale Paint offers a complete range of high-performance protective coatings for the mining industry. Designed to withstand the harshest environmental and mechanical challenges, our coating systems help mining companies protect high-value assets, extend equipment life, and reduce maintenance costs in both surface and underground operations.

Engineered Coatings for Mining Environments

Mining operations are characterised by abrasive materials, heavy impact, high humidity, chemical exposure, and rapid equipment wear. Cloverdale Paint’s industrial coatings are formulated to address these exact challenges with superior adhesion, resistance, and durability:

Coatings Offered

  • Abrasion-Resistant Epoxies: Designed for use on equipment and surfaces exposed to constant impact and wear, such as chutes, hoppers, and conveyors..
  • Zinc-Rich Primers: Deliver long-term corrosion protection on steel substrates, especially in humid or corrosive mine environments.
  • Polyurethane Topcoats: Offer excellent UV resistance and gloss retention for exterior equipment and support structures.
  • High-Build Epoxies: Provide outstanding chemical resistance, ideal for tanks, machinery, and processing equipment.
  • Moisture-Cured Urethanes: Enable application in challenging on-site conditions with fast return-to-service times.
  • Direct-to-Metal (DTM) Coatings: Allow for efficient, labour-saving application on equipment and fabricated components.

Benefits of Using Cloverdale Paint for Mining Applications

  • Extended Equipment Lifespan: Reduce rust, abrasion, and mechanical damage to keep equipment operational longer.
  • Lower Maintenance Costs: High-durability coatings reduce the frequency of recoating and costly unplanned maintenance.
  • Fast Return to Service: Quick-drying and easy-to-apply coatings help maintain uptime and minimize downtime.
  • Superior Corrosion Resistance: Protect steel structures, vehicles, and machinery from rust and degradation.
  • Expert Support: Backed by regional technical teams who understand mining challenges and provide on-site guidance.

Common Mining Equipment & Assets Coated

Heavy Equipment

  • Haul trucks and service vehicles
  • Loaders, excavators, and bulldozers
  • Drilling rigs and crushers
  • These machines operate in high-abrasion environments and benefit from abrasion-resistant epoxies and polyurethane finishes. 

Processing & Material Handling

  • Chutes and hoppers
  • Conveyors and screens
  • Crushing and milling systems
  • Coatings here must resist impact, moisture, and constant material flow. Cloverdale Paint’s heavy-duty coatings help reduce material buildup and wear.

Infrastructure

  • Structural steel, catwalks, and staircases
  • Maintenance buildings and service shops
  • Fuel storage and containment systems
  • Long-lasting exterior coatings and primers protect against corrosion, UV exposure, and harsh weather conditions.

Tanks and Piping

  • Water and slurry tanks
  • Chemical storage units
  • Process and drainage piping
  • High-build epoxies and linings safeguard against chemical attack, erosion, and temperature fluctuations.
