Pacific Urethanes is excited to announce its recent partnership with Nukote Coating Systems International (NCSI) to expand its asset protection range across multiple industries in Australia and New Zealand.

Pacific Urethanes has formed a strategic partnership with Nukote Coating Systems International (NCSI) to enhance asset protection solutions across various industries in Australia and New Zealand. This collaboration positions Pacific Urethanes as the exclusive distributor of NCSI’s Aegis liner and coatings technology, designed to offer exceptional wear and corrosion resistance.

NCSI, a global leader in advanced polymer coatings and liner products, serves industries such as infrastructure, mining, petrochemicals, power generation, and water systems. Their product range includes pure polyureas, modified polyureas, polyurethanes, and ceramic metal polymers, all engineered to meet specific application needs. These solutions are intended to extend the life of assets by providing superior protection against wear and corrosion, making them highly valuable in the mining and infrastructure sectors.

One of the standout features of NCSI’s technology is its ultra-fast elastomeric coatings, which offer rapid setting times compared to traditional coatings. This allows for faster asset return to service, minimising downtime and improving productivity. Additionally, NCSI’s technology supports the structural repair of liquid-holding assets like tanks and pipelines, enabling asset owners to repair rather than replace damaged components.

Matthew Slatyer, National Sales Manager at Pacific Urethanes, highlighted that this technology is new to the Australian and New Zealand markets. “This partnership gives our customers access to advanced lining and coating systems previously unavailable in the region,” Slatyer stated.

Nukote has a proven track record globally, providing high-performance protective coatings and structural liners to key market segments. They focus on rehabilitating and restoring infrastructure like pipes, tanks, and basins. Nukote also offers engineering design solutions across various industries, including mining, petrochemicals, and transportation. The company is involved in all project stages, from concept to completion, ensuring tailored solutions for each client.

Michael Osborne, President and CEO of Nukote, emphasised the strength of the partnership, stating that combining Nukote’s products, engineering expertise, and robotics with Pacific Urethanes’ distribution and technical support capabilities will significantly enhance their offerings in Australia and New Zealand. Osborne also noted that Nukote has been in the region for 12 years, and this partnership marks a new growth phase.

Darren Millar, CEO of Pacific Urethanes, described the partnership as a key component of the company’s growth strategy. “This collaboration aligns with our vision of becoming trusted partners in delivering complete solutions to our customers,” said Millar.

The long-term goal of this partnership is to encourage the adoption of new, innovative technologies and to drive market growth in key sectors. Both companies are optimistic that their combined expertise will lead to more sustainable solutions and significant advancements in asset protection.
