MATCOR Corrosion Engineering Services
Protect your critical infrastructure from corrosion risks with MATCOR’s comprehensive corrosion engineering solutions. Our AMPP-certified experts use industry-leading strategies to ensure the long-term durability of your assets, safeguarding them against costly failures and downtime.
What’s the difference between corrosion engineering and cathodic protection engineering?
Corrosion engineering takes a broad approach to preventing and managing corrosion across various environments and industries. This includes strategies like material selection, coatings, environmental controls, and design enhancements to minimize corrosion risks.
Cathodic protection engineering is a specialized method focused on using electrochemical systems to prevent corrosion. It’s especially effective for metal structures exposed to soil, water, or concrete. Cathodic protection works by applying a small electrical current to counteract the natural corrosion process, offering highly targeted protection for specific applications.
At MATCOR, we provide a comprehensive approach to corrosion engineering while also delivering specialized cathodic protection solutions for your unique needs.
