Industrial painting in short
Tactical Height Solutions paints industrial buildings and structures in Sydney and across NSW: warehouse and factory walls, steel frames, roofs, tanks, pipework and plant. Coating systems are chosen for the surface and the exposure, following AS 2312 and AS/NZS 2311, and work is planned around operations and shutdowns. Areas that lifts and scaffold cannot reach are painted by IRATA-certified rope access technicians.

Industrial sites rarely stop for painting, and the coating has to do more than look good: it protects steel and concrete from corrosion, chemicals and weather. We plan the work around your operations and choose the coating system for the exposure, not just the colour.
We paint warehouse and factory walls, steel portal frames and columns, roller doors, handrails, bollards, pipework, tanks and plant platforms. Low and medium-height work is done from the ground, mobile scaffold and elevated work platforms; high walls, roofs, structures above equipment and tanks are painted on rope, so the floor below stays in use.
Preparation is where industrial coatings succeed or fail, so surface preparation, film thickness and recoat times are checked as we go. For heavy-duty corrosion protection, see our protective coatings service.
Why choose our industrial painting

Questions about industrial painting
Can you paint while the warehouse is operating?
Yes. We work in zones, outside operating hours or during planned shutdowns, with exclusion zones agreed with your site team.
Do you do floor line marking as well?
Yes. See our line marking and safety markings services for walkways, forklift zones, loading docks and car parks.
What paint system do you use on steel?
It depends on the steel condition and the environment. We specify a coating system to suit, from a maintenance repaint to full corrosion protection.
Can you paint high structures without scaffold?
Yes. High walls, roof steel, tanks and structures above plant are painted on rope, so the floor below stays in use.
