TOP PROJECT CATEGORIES
Project nominations should include details about the project and companies involved, including the coating systems used and any surface preparation, application and inspection equipment employed on the job. Projects should have been completed between January 2022 and July 2023.
The Project MVP fields should include information about the individuals involved in the project, including their roles and responsibilities on the job. Nominations should also include high-resolution photos from the project and of the players involved.
The Top Project categories are:
SURFACE PREPARATION
This award will be presented to a coatings project that involves a considerable amount of surface preparation prior to coatings application. Examples might include an exceptionally large area that needed to be prepared, or the use of novel materials, equipment or processes. Project nominations should include details about the equipment and materials employed, as well as specifications and standards followed.
STEEL COATING
This award will be given for a coatings project on a steel structure. The project can involve application of new coatings technologies, and/or involve application on a particularly complicated or challenging structure. Nominees should highlight the coatings systems used and how project challenges were overcome.
CONCRETE COATING
On the flipside of the Top Project: Steel Coating award, this award will be given for a coatings project on a concrete structure. Again, the project can involve application of new coatings technologies, and/or involve application on a particularly complicated or challenging structure. Any specialized surface preparation or inspection techniques should also me highlighted, along with the coatings systems used and project challenges.
SPECIALTY FUNCTION
This project will highlight a coating project that involves applications that serve functions outside of just corrosion protection. Examples might include fire protection, graffiti remediation, antifouling and more. The project can involve steel, concrete or a combination of substrates.
