Transport & Infrastructure
Eptec is a specialist in asset preservation and rehabilitation and has been heavily involved in the construction and ongoing maintenance of a wealth of public and private assets across Australia and internationally.
Any construction of steel or concrete requires corrosion protection from the effects of the natural and man made environments. Eptec offers a complete range of solutions including coatings, linings, membranes or injection products.
By the nature of infrastructure assets, important considerations are often public safety, community disruption or environmental impact. Eptec’s experience and systemic approach ensures all aspects of the project are actively managed.
Bridges can pose significant problems as they generally span areas of concern (roads, train lines, environmentally sensitive watercourse). Both safety and environmental risk management is critical.
On older structures, the removal of the existing coatings is often one of the more critical elements and Eptec has many years of experience of dealing with hazardous materials. Eptec is accredited with PCCP levels 1-4, level 5A & 5B and level 6 for the management and removal of hazardous coatings.

Inherent in any tunnel design is the risk of water ingress, whether this be groundwater or freshwater/seawater where the tunnel goes under a body of water.
Experience of dealing with water in tunnels is invaluable and Eptec can claim to have some of the most experienced engineers and operators in the field of tunnel waterproofing in Australia.

With exposure to salt water and often extreme tides, wharves and jetties require regular maintenance and repair.
Eptec’s experience in the marine environment extends to the protection of wharves and jetties from corrosion and erosion. Critical to this is the understanding of how to minimise disruption to operations.

Roads undergo high wear and tear and the destructive effect of water under the road surface can be significant.
