Predicated ongoing spend on tower painting is £6.85 million per year, hence requirements have been identified for continued research to test and evaluate the performance of alternative paint products to ensure the company is prepared for any changes to legislation.
Inspections of trial towers painted with a newly developed environmentally friendly water based system have also been carried out. NG has requested the opportunity to participate in the final stages of the testing. Participation will ensure access to all test results to date and the final report when complete.
