Here at Goldburn, we guide our customers through the minefield and give them the correct quality finish for their products. Based in Hampshire, our highly experienced team are committed to providing you with highest technical service and quality available.
Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (C.A.R.C.)
Chemical Agent Resistant Coating is a paint finish commonly applied to military vehicles. It provides protection against chemical and biological weapons.
Its unique formulation allows coated vehicles to be decontaminated in the event of exposure to chemical or biological warfare agents.
The paint is also resistant to damage and removal by decontaminating solutions. Two-component systems (e.g. epoxy or polyester-based) are often employed.
The UK and U.S military have many demanding specifications when it comes to the finish of their products. Colour and gloss are very important aspects – from concealing equipment in the desert to camouflage patterns that reduce detection in the field. However, in order to sustain certifications these colour finishes must also protect the equipment from the harsh environmental aspects.
Most military vehicles and equipment require a topcoat applied with camouflaged CARCs. These topcoats produce a non-porous finish that acts as a protectant against radioactive, biological and chemical contamination.
