Protective Coatings for Natural Gas
Premium coatings. Industry-leading standards.
What are PROTECTIVE COATINGs FOR THE NATURAL GAS INDUSTRY?
Natural gas facilities operate in environments that expose infrastructure to high temperatures, corrosive gases, fire hazards, and chemical attack. Protective coatings are essential for maintaining asset integrity, improving safety and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations such as those from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). Protective coating systems help prevent corrosion, extend equipment life and reduce costly downtime.
Sherwin-Williams offers a comprehensive portfolio of industrial coatings engineered for natural gas infrastructure. Our solutions are designed for both atmospheric and immersion service, protecting assets such as turbines, heat recovery steam generators (HRSG), pipelines and storage tanks. This includes thermal insulative coatings (TICs) that provide direct-to-metal insulation, helping maintain optimal operating temperatures while eliminating the corrosion-prone zone found beneath traditional insulation systems. Sherwin-Williams delivers coatings that meet the demands of both new construction and maintenance projects, with global reach and local technical support.

Solving for Corrosion in Harsh Natural Gas Environments
Corrosion is a constant challenge in natural gas power generation and processing, where high temperatures, moisture and chemical exposure can quickly degrade steel infrastructure. Sherwin-Williams protective coatings are formulated to resist corrosion in aggressive environments, including corrosion under insulation (CUI), which is a common issue in insulated systems.
- Corrosion protection, including mitigation and elimination of CUI
- Increased safety and reduced fire risk
- TICs for thermal barrier break/retention and personnel protection
- Solutions for pipelines, tanks, vessels and turbines
- Reliable performance in high-temperature environments
- Suitable for atmospheric, immersion and insulated applications
- Supports long-term asset integrity and compliance
LONG-LASTING COATING SOLUTIONS FOR THE NATURAL GAS INDUSTRY
Sherwin-Williams delivers high-performance protective coatings designed to meet the demanding conditions of natural gas facilities, providing resistance to corrosion, chemical exposure, extreme temperatures, and fire across turbines, heat recovery steam generators, storage tanks, cooling systems, and structural buildings. Our solutions support both new construction and maintenance, including thermal insulated coatings that simplify installation, reduce labor costs, extend asset life and eliminate the need for traditional insulation.
Sherwin-Williams TICs eliminate the corrosion zones by removing the need for traditional insulation materials. These coatings form a direct barrier between the asset and its environment, preventing moisture entrapment while also enhancing personnel safety through safe-to-touch surfaces that reduce burn risk in high-temperature areas and support safer maintenance practices. Our technologies also enable continuous operation during maintenance while helping facilities meet critical performance requirements.
