PPG PITT-CHAR® XP modular construction The only patented flexible epoxy intumescent on the market The unreliable, fluctuating price of oil has made modular, off-site fabrication increasingly popular in oil and gas plant construction projects. Working this way is generally more cost effective for operators, but it is not without its challenges. Prefabricated steel sections are at risk of being damaged when they are transported from their point of manufacture to final assembly on-site, which can be thousands of miles apart.

PPG PITT-CHAR® XP modular construction Increase efficiency, save time, protect assets Benefits for modular construction The use of PPG PITT-CHAR XP intumescent coating increases fabrication speed and efficiency, resulting in faster turnaround of structural steel and enabling tight production schedules to be met. It is compatible for use over a wide range of steel substrates, including carbon steel and galvanized steel. As a single-product system with one mixing ratio, PPG PITT-CHAR XP is less complicated to apply than twoproduct epoxy systems. This ease of use also ensures that over-coating...
