Train The Painter - Thin Film Intumescent Coatings

What's Train the Painter?

Train the Painter is an internationally recognised training programme which is accredited and approved by Lloyds Register.

The training has been developed by coating experts at Corrodere Academy in response to the strong demand for certification within the industrial coatings industry that now requires personnel working within the road, rail, renewables and oil and gas industries to obtain professional specified certificates.

FIRE PROTECTION COATINGS

Course Overview

This is the fully accredited CSCS , BRE , ASFP Train The Painter applicators course for thin film intumescent coatings.

Intumescent coatings are applied to steel buildings either on or off site, to prevent structural failure in the event of fire, it is therefore essential that these coatings are applied by trained and qualified coating applicators. Thorough and correct training in Thin Film Intumescent Coating saves time, money and ultimately lives!

As part of the Globally recognised Train the painter coating applicator training program, this independently accredited training course for Thin Film Intumescent coatings has been developed to meet industry demands.

This training program has been developed with input from industry experts and associated bodies to create the first and only accredited Thin Film Intumescent coatings in the UK.
