Product catalog summary
Introduction
PPG SIGMASHIELD™ 1200 is a solvent-free phenolic epoxy coating designed for ice-going vessels, offering ultimate protection in extreme conditions. It aims to improve performance, reduce costs, and lower VOC emissions.

Specifications
The coating is solvent-free and features a high polymer cross-link density, enhancing abrasion resistance. It is designed to withstand the aggressive impact and abrasion typical of ice-going vessels.

Advanced Technology
PPG SIGMASHIELD 1200 outperforms market standards in mechanical, impact, and abrasion resistance. It has been independently tested and approved by Aker Arctic Technology and other institutions.

Key Features
  • Superior impact and abrasion resistance, particularly against gouging.
  • Exceptional anticorrosive protection, especially when combined with cathodic protection.
  • Ease of application using cold, single-feed airless spray equipment.
  • 100% solids and solvent-free, reducing VOC emissions and fire risk.
  • Low friction coefficient, reducing fuel consumption and engine load.

Independent Testing
The coating has been recognized by international classification authorities for its abrasion resistance and low friction properties.

Conclusion
PPG SIGMASHIELD 1200 offers a range of benefits for ice-going vessels, including reduced maintenance costs, enhanced protection, and environmental compliance. It is recognized by Lloyd’s Register and Aker Arctic Technology for its performance in harsh conditions.

SIGMASHIELD 1200-3

Exceptional anticorrosive protection Exceptional anticorrosive protection Ease of application ensures greater productivity Low friction reduces fuel consumption and costs Under extreme conditions, no coating can provide 100% protection. A degree of damage is inevitable; therefore, the focus must be to minimize this damage and, should the substrate be exposed, reduce any subsequent coating damage. When developing our systems, we also focus on making the application as simple as possible to reduce your maintenance schedule and costs. We understand the pressure that you face to manage operating...
