In the world of powder coating (in particular pipe coatings), the term “WRAS Approved Coatings” has great significance – it’s a badge of trust, safety and compliance. For companies working in the UK water treatment and supply sector, WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) certification ensures that coatings are approved for use with drinking water. This means that WRAS-approved powder coatings, like the ones we use at Northpoint, aren’t just protective; they’re certified as being harmless to public health and compliant with water regulations.
WRAS approval is essential for any coatings applied to pipework, valves, or fittings that come into contact with drinking water. It involves rigorous testing to ensure that the coating does not leach harmful substances, alter taste, or affect water quality. In short, Northpoint can provide our customers with peace of mind and regulatory assurance.
We offer Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) coatings, including Resicoat products in blue, black, and green. These coatings carry WRAS approval, making them ideal for water industry applications. We also apply Jotaguard VA 5001, a WRAS-approved coating used for internal pipework.
