Captec recently announced a new investment in its specialist surface treatment infrastructure that will provide the ability to meet the stringent levels of the latest 2025 BR 3939 Warpaint standards.
The upgrade, developed in close collaboration with global surface treatment leader SurTec, has expanded Captec’s operation from a six-tank to a 12-tank configuration, which aligns with SurTec’s best-in-class specifications for advanced chemical processing and enables Captec to offer next-generation treatments engineered specifically for mission-critical environments.
Captec now provides enhanced corrosion resistance, ultra-low surface resistance, and an optimal base for high-performance coatings, capabilities essential to meet the highest tier of BR 3939 standards.
As a result, the company is now one of only a handful of UK providers qualified to deliver treatment processes that satisfy the compliance and reliability thresholds required in defense and aerospace programs.
SurTec’s metalwork treatment technologies are recognized for their reliability in the most challenging maritime and defense scenarios, environments where surface corrosion and lifecycle performance are critical.
