Abrasive blasting and sandblasting services available throughout Canada

Abrasive blasting is widely used to remove corrosion, industrial paints, and surface impurities in order to generate an acceptable surface profile for coating application.
IronForge actively controls containment, dust control, and site safety when performing abrasive blasting, particularly in congested industrial situations.

Applications for abrasive blasting generally include:

  • Getting structural steel ready

  • Rust and industrial paint removal

  • Profiling the surface before applying  industrial Painting

  • Maintenance and upgrading of industrial facilities

When selecting blasting techniques and media, the substrate type, project scope, and site circumstances are taken into account.

Preparing Industrial Surfaces for Protective Coating

A properly prepared surface has a considerable influence on painting adherence, durability, and service life. IronForge delivers controlled surface preparation services in an attempt to get substrates suitable for new protective systems.

Our surface preparation services support:

  • Painting and repainting jobs in an industrial setting

  • Remedial corrosion and asset restoration

  • Programs for maintenance and refurbishment

  • New Construction and refurbishment projects

Sandblasting & Water Blasting

For the sake of vital assets, structural steel, and industrial structures, IronForge Industrial Painting & Blasting offers water and abrasive blasting services across British Columbia and Canada. We provide surface preparation services with an emphasis on safety, control, and substrate integrity to allow long term coating performance and asset protection.
The first stage in every industrial painting technique is surface preparation. Our procedures are chosen with the substrate's condition, environmental conditions, and project criteria in mind.

Water Blasting / Hydroblasting Services

When dust management, substrate sensitivity, or environmental considerations are necessary, water blasting, also referred to as hydroblasting is performed. This approach lowers airborne particulates while delivering improved cleaning and industrial paint removal.

Common uses for water blasting include:

  • Facilities that are occupied or in use

  • Equipment or substrates that are sensitive

  • Locations with strong pollution or environmental legislation

  • Getting ready before painting or inspecting

Technologies for water blasting are coordinated to suit project specific needs, waste management requirements, and safety standards.

Applying the Right Surface Preparation Technique

Procedures for surface preparation are chosen based on a variety of factors, such as:

  • Material and state of the substrate

  • Current paints and levels of corrosion

  • Site and environmental limitations

  • Requirements for Painting processes

  • The facility's operational state

For every project, IronForge collaborates with site representatives and clients to identify the best surface preparation strategy.

Operating in Operational Establishment and Industrial Facilities

Many surface preparation operations are conducted in operational environments. IronForge manages blasting activities to minimize disturbance to existing company operations while preserving safety, site coordination, and access control.
On both controlled and active sites, the crew has expertise interacting with inspectors, facility workers, and other crafts.

Documentation, Safety, and Environmental Control

Safety and environmental management are critical to abrasive and water blasting activities. IronForge promotes open communication, controlled execution, and hazard management throughout the project lifecycle.

Documentation could consist of:

  • Coordination of technique and scopee

  • Keeping an eye on regular activities

  • Documentation utilizing pictures

  • Closeout documentation relevant for the investigation of maintenance and procurement
