About NashGuard Corrosion Defence

The concept behind NASHGUARD started around 15 years ago with exposure to the offshore oil and gas industry and the corrosion effects of a saline rich and H2S environments and the dangers of abrasive blasting and needle blasting within an ATEX environment. It was at this point where we started investigating chemically activated surface preparation, to explore the market and understand the dangers and issues relating to “rust converters” within any environment.This concept became more apparent in early 2011 with exposure to the power industry, CHP sites and in particular with GIS lines and SPL type circuit breakers. On these sites, environmental breakdown of gaskets continually causes SF6 carrying pipelines and leak, which is an ever increasing problem. This helped guide our focus on both chemically induced iron oxide neutralisation, that does not damage the integrity of seals or gaskets, and the necessity to develop a protective barrier that prevent electrolytes and environmental breakdown of the rubber gaskets and metal components.In 2014 the first evolution of our Passive Corrosion Inhibitor was developed and provided welcome relief to a host of offshore and onshore industrial sites, from oil rigs, to water treatment sites, to DNO sites to chemical manufactures and the growth started. The first steps proved hard, as we had a lot of hoops to jump through, regarding testing and suitability, so we approached "sales" as a slow burner. As part of the initial 2015 development, we wanted to expand on the PCI and The first step was to conduct in depth analysis and research into what those people on the front end, actually want the general consensus was to develop a complete anti-corrosion system that is user friendly, that does not just mask corrosion, that requires minimal equipment and is safe to use, in any environment.
