HOT-DIP GALVANISED STEEL
All steel components are hot-dip galvanised, which produces a matt grey surface after a while. We offer a lifetime anti-rust warranty.
HOT-DIP GALVANISED AND POWDER-COATED STEEL
The powder coating process was developed to satisfy the tough requirements of the Norwegian offshore industry. The finish must be of very high quality and also conform to corrosion class C5-M (EN 12944). Vestre offers more than 200 standard RAL classic colours at no extra charge.
MAINTENANCE
STEEL COMPONENTS
Hot-dip galvanised and powder-coated steel is essentially maintenance free, although it is recommended that it is cleaned at frequent intervals. White rust may appear on products with hot-dip galvanised surfaces due to condensation and moisture. This will not impact the product’s life span and will eventually be washed away by rain and wind. All steel components may be washed with a high pressure water jet although strong chemicals will affect the surface. Painted surfaces may be freshened up after a few years by using normal paint care agents.
WOODEN LATHS
Linseed oil impregnated wooden laths (Linax) are not UV-resistant and will turn grey after a period of time. To prevents cracks and to extend the life span of the wood, it is recommended that the laths are oiled every 3-5 years. The need for this type of maintenance depends on wear and tear. The recommended oil may be ordered from Vestre (3 litres). It is also possible to use other linseed oil based wood oils, for example, royal oil. The wood’s lustre may also be freshened up after a few years by using an oil with a colour pigment, for example, brown. Painted and stained woodwork will naturally require more frequent maintenance.
