Innovative Solution Against Corrosion: Success Story in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz

Located in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, a region known for its highly corrosive environment, the Sales del Istmo company faced a serious problem. Corrosion was rapidly attacking the ceilings of his warehouse, prompting a search for more durable solutions.

 

Main Problem: Corrosion in Coatzacoalcos

The saline conditions in Coatzacoalcos are a challenge for any material. The Sales del Istmo warehouse, which had a steel roof, experienced rust problems in less than a year. This not only compromised structural integrity, but also increased costs by requiring intensive cleaning and frequent refinishing.

 

The SIESA® Solution: Fiberglass Profiles

As leaders in innovative solutions, SIESA® proposed a revolutionary alternative: structures made of fiberglass reinforced plastic by means of pultrusion. This material efficiently resists corrosion, making it the perfect choice for the Coatzacoalcos climate.

 

Solution Benefits:

Costs reduction: By not needing treatments or repainting, maintenance costs are drastically reduced.

Durability: The roof has a useful life of 30 years or more without showing signs of deterioration.

Installation Efficiency: Fiberglass profiles weigh 20% less than steel ones, which makes assembly quick and easy.

 

Conclusion:

SIESA®'s choice to use fiberglass profiles not only addressed Sales del Istmo's main problem but also streamlined the construction process and reduced costs in the long run. This case demonstrates the importance of selecting the right materials based on the environment and the specific conditions of each project.
