"I chose GOAD COMPANY to build our tanks with Koroseal Linings"

Whitby Ellsworth, President of National Chromium
Putnam, Connecticut

"Then I learned that GOAD is the largest Koroseal applicator in the U.S."

"I prefer Koroseal because it is the best product I can get for our tanks," said Ellsworth. "When I met with GOAD COMPANY, I liked what I saw, and especially appreciated the communication established with their staff.

"Their quote was competitive, so we awarded them the contract to build four 800-gallon chromium tanks plus about 16 other tanks, and hoods and ducts," continued Ellsworth. "They were quite thorough, they lived up to their promise, and we are quite pleased with their work. We were so satisfied that we awarded them another order."

For National Chromium, GOAD installed Koroseal with GOPLUSO linings in the top 12" of the tanks. Special GOPLUS material was bonded on top of and welded on to the Koroseal to address the problem of deterioration at solution level.

GOAD COMPANY actively promotes Koroseal tank linings because they have functioned so successfully for their plating customers. Koroseal linings made with thermoplastic PVC provide a high resistance to corrosives that cannot be matched by rubber linings. Bonding Koroseal to a tank provides excellent corrosion resistance and extends the tanks service life. The lining can be spark tested for leaks before service, as well as anytime thereafter.

Compared with Koroseal linings, drop-in liners usually fit loosely, causing them to sag when filled. They tend to create fit problems for tanks with a variety of outlets, weirs, sumps, partitions, and overflows. With drop-in liners, it is very difficult to detect leaks before significant damage occurs.

Koroseal can be repaired readily in the field. GOAD provides 24-hour emergency repair service. The company is the largest Koroseal tank lining applicator in the country and has been for many years.

"For more than 40 years, GOAD COMPANY has provided the metal finishing industry with the most comprehensive, corrosion resistant fabricating service in

the Midwest,'' said company president Curtis Goad. The company maintains two fully staffed plants in St. Louis and Kansas City, complete with field crews and portable equipment. Its employees offer over 600 cumulative years of experience in the industry.

GOAD is a licensed and approved applicator and fabricator for most linings/coatings; and specialty materials. The company can also assist finishers in the design and installation of complete systems, including fume handling and process control.
