Chemical Resistance in Wine Tanks

Tanks and reservoirs used in winemaking are often exposed to harsh chemicals, such as acids, alkalis, and cleaners. It is therefore critical to choose a coating that offers exceptional resistance to these substances to prevent corrosion and surface deterioration, thereby maintaining the wine's quality. Epoxy coatings are particularly known for their chemical resistance and durability in demanding industrial environments.
