Epoxy Coating Plant Certification

CRSI's fusion-bonded epoxy coating applicator plant certification is a voluntary industry-sponsored program — extremely effective at improving the quality of epoxy-coated rebar.

A certified plant and its employees are trained, equipped, and capable of producing high quality epoxy-coated reinforcing bars. The plants are randomly inspected, a minimum of once a year, by an independent third party. The purpose of CRSI's plant certification program is to:

• Help plants produce and deliver high quality material
• Improve plant operations
• Recognize excellence.

The certification program is based on meeting ASTM standard specifications for epoxy-coated reinforcing bar. Certification program is more stringent in areas, though. Areas evaluated in the program include:

• Quality control policies and procedures
• Handling and storage practices
• Surface preparation
• Curing
• Holiday testing
• Thickness measurement
• Adhesion testing.
