who we are
About
ZCD started in 2015 with the offshore oil and gas industry, dealing with corrosion in harsh environments. Initially, we researched chemical surface preparation and the risks of rust converters.
In 2014, our focus expanded to the power industry, particularly CHP sites and GIS lines, where gasket failures cause leaks. This led us to develop methods to neutralize iron oxide without damaging seals and to create protective barriers for components.
By 2015, we developed our Passive Corrosion Inhibitor, benefiting many industrial sites, from oil rigs to water treatment plants.
We Now, operate globally, serving clients in the UK, Middle East, US, and Asia-Pacific.
Our team comprises engineers, corrosion specialists, and chemists who created ZCD to solve corrosion issues effectively and safely. We work with vetted industry experts to provide top-notch service.
Zerosion Corrosion Defence is at the start of a mega journey of revolutionizing asset protection and are generating a lot of interest throughout the world.
Zerosion isn’t just a “coating”, Zerosion is a complete anti-corrosion system, designed and developed to arrest corrosion on aging assets and prevent it coming back, and, to protect new assets / newly installed assets from deterioration due to corrosion. The system isn’t just an “out of sight, out of mind” paint, Zerosion contains inbuilt corrosion eliminators and inhibitors to ensure longevity of protection and extends the life of your assets.
story behind us
Conceptualizing
The concept behind Zerosion started in 2004 with exposure to the offshore oil and gas industry in the UK, and the devastating effects of corrosion in saline rich and H2S environments. Couple that with the dangers of abrasive blasting and needle blasting within an ATEX environment and you are left with an orange, rusted, expensive rotting chunk of iron in the North Sea. It was at this point we started
asking why?
- Why does nothing exist to protect bolted assets, other than slapping grease on them?
- Why leave the part that you NEED to use, to access, to undo, rot?
- Why, in today’s world, do we need sacrificial anodes?
So, we began investigating chemically activated surface preparation; To explore the market and understand the dangers and issues relating to “rust converters” within any environment. We soon learned the dangers of “rust converters”, the acidity issues on metal and rubber and, the expense.
This development became more apparent in early 2012 with exposure to the power industry, CHP sites and in particular with GIS lines and SPL type circuit breakers. On these sites, environmental breakdown of gaskets continually causes SF6 carrying pipelines and leak, which is an ever-increasing problem. This helped guide our focus on both chemically induced iron oxide neutralization, that does not damage the integrity of seals or gaskets, and the necessity to develop a protective barrier that prevent electrolytes and environmental breakdown of the rubber gaskets and metal components.
Since the initial concept, we have continued to develop and have had the pleasure of working with various suppliers to create the perfect “all-rounder”, we tripped, we have fallen, we were stole from, we worked hard and we succeeded and we have flown, we JV’d and we contracted, we now work alone, working with some amazing clients all of over the globe, with customers in the UK, in the Middle East, in the United States and in ASIA-PAC. What we won’t do is settle.
Protecting Assets Around the Globe
Since our humble beginnings, ZCD has grown into a global player in corrosion defense. We’ve collaborated with a wide range of partners and suppliers, tested our systems rigorously, and served clients across the UK, Middle East, United States, and Asia-Pacific. Our investment and focus has always remained to refine our product offering and expand our global reach.
Years of Experience in Fighting Corrosion
Quality Assurance: Who are we?
Ultimately, we are a team of engineers who saw a gap in the market; We are corrosion engineers, coating specialists and chemists. We created ZCD from in-field experience, from years of learning, of ICORR membership and of hard work, to solve a problem. We do not sell off the shelf silicone paint or thermos-plastic.
We created a revolution—and we stand by what we created. Sound too good to be true? Ask us how it works. Ask about the key ingredients, the testing data, our SOPs, or our documentation processes. Ask what makes Zerosion so special. We are not resellers. We are not house painters masquerading as corrosion engineers. We are field experts who designed this recipe through toil and hard work—to solve a problem cost-effectively, safely, and properly. We collaborate with specially selected, vetted industry experts worldwide to deliver a genuine, uncompromising service.
