The Technology

2 resin systems, 1 coat

OneGuard combines the proven strength of an epoxy alongside a proprietary polymer blend resin, creating a hybrid technology that yields exceptional mechanical properties.

The Strength of Epoxy. Elevated by Hybrid Chemistry.

Resin #1

Epoxy Novolac Resin

OneGuard leverages an epoxy novolac resin to deliver excellent adhesion and bond strength with strong resistance to aggressive chemicals and corrosive environments.

Resin #2

Proprietary Polymer Resin Blend

The formulation then pulls properties from a proprietary polymer resin blend which enhances hydrophobicity, corrosion and impact resistance, flexibility, and faster dry time for quicker return to service.

Coating Comparison

Epoxy Systems vs. OneGuard

Two resin systems. One coat. OneGuard combines both technologies into a single hybrid system that reduces a traditional 3+ step coating process to just one application.

Case Study

OneGuard™ Helps Cut Cargo Tank Coating Time by More Than 50%

This case study highlights the application of OneGuard™, APC's innovative single-coat cargo tank coating system, across more than 3,000 square meters of a chemical tanker in Shenzhen, China. Completed in under four days, the project achieved a greater than 50% reduction in coating application time, a two-hour dry time, and 75% lower VOC emissions compared to conventional epoxy systems. Explore the project results and discover how OneGuard simplifies shipyard operations, reduces downtime, and helps vessels return to revenue-generating service sooner.
