Kwikstage Two-Coat Paint System<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Many within the industry will be aware, this type of painted finish is by no means a revolutionary or new option, being used for many years for certain types of customer requirements. St Helens Plant can offer the two-coat paint system in any required RAL\/BS colour, with the collection, refurbishment and return of your scaffolding stock included.<\/p>\n

Why is the Two-Coat Paint System Applied?<\/strong><\/p>\n

St Helens Plant, as the UK’s only all-encompassing manufacturer, repairs and reconditioning specialist. Regularly see Kwikstage through our facility that has not been reconditioned at regular periods.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The difference we see nowadays, is genuine Kwikstage – that was originally manufactured and now still manufactured by St Helens Plant Limited<\/a> – is finished with a one-coat fully dipped, part Zinc-Phosphate<\/strong> paint.<\/p>\n

This process provides the equipment a good standard of protection and lifespan.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, over the years due to recessions and budgets the equipment has not had regular inspections and painting therefore, giving the opinion – that the equipment looks not fit for purpose.<\/div><\/div>\n

Many types of Kwikstage nowadays, are painted using non-zinc phosphate finishes, resulting in a system nowhere near as protected or long-life as original Kwikstage, once was.<\/p>\n

St Helens Plant continue to manufacture and supply original Zinc-Phosphate dipped Kwikstage. However, we have said before and acknowledged…<\/p>\n

There are\u00a0very good alternative galvanised systems coming into the market, with the general industry view of – Kwikstage will be left behind.<\/div><\/div>\n

The MD and owner Gordon Brown, has gone with this new recommendation of a fully dipped primer – then another fully dipped top coat of silver.\u00a0Providing our customer with a fully reconditioned Kwikstage scaffolding stock. That is safe, long-lasting and aesthetically impressive.<\/p>\n

Safe Access Highland Ltd have recently added an alternative galvanised system to their scaffolding stock. Whilst also opting to still utilize their Kwiksatage, as a paid asset – on projects ideal for the Kwikstage system.<\/p>\n
