Axalta will showcase recent Nap-Gard enhancements including its new, high-temperature protective internal pipe coatings.

These internal pipe coatings are formulated to be highly effective in combatting typical corrosion caused by carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) often found in sour crude oil and known to present a major challenge for the oil and gas industry.
