Our customers reduce their project costs significantly due to high quality spot blasting, no dust or spill and safe execution.
COST-REDUCING PINOVO FEATURES: - No flying grit or dust reduces, and often eliminates, the need for barriers, scaffolding, sheeting and clean-up - Extended lifespan on spot repairs (same as open blasting, 15-20 years) - Other work disciplines are not affected and can work side by side with PINOVO® enclosed blasting tools - Recycling the blast media gives significantly reduced blast media consumption and typically 75% reduced waste -No damage to surrounding equipment -Low noise and no vibration on the tools means no work restrictions for time on tool and less personnel needed |
Remove additional costs associated with conventional surface preparation, and spend your money on the actual job that needs to be done - the blasting. (click to zoom)

SUPERIOR SURFACE QUALITY
|
Pinovo vacuum blasting provides a clean operation with the same surface purity and roughness as open blasting. This ensures a permanent repair with the same lifespan as the original coating.
DO IT PROPERLY, DO IT ONCE: - The PINOVO® tools leave a clean and dry surface (Sa 2½-3, from sweep blast to 120 µm), ready to be coated immediately after blasting - Feathered edges ensures a perfect transition between old and new coating system when blasting spots - Even suitable for metallization |
True quality lies in the details. Feathered edges provides a perfect, smooth transition from blasted area to existing intact coating. This is crucial to ensure a permanent repair. (Click to enlarge picture)
