In the industry, there is no universal paint. Each site presents its own constraints: type of substrate, exposure to the elements, risk of corrosion, temperature, mechanical stresses, industrial environment, or the desired level of finish.
The ANTICO range from Maestria offers technical solutions designed for professionals to address these various issues.
The goal is therefore not to randomly choose an industrial paint, but to select the product or system suited to the specific needs of the site.
🏭 An ANTICO paint for every professional issue
Metal structures, industrial equipment, piping, locksmithing, frameworks, tanks, machines, or elements subject to specific conditions: the needs can vary greatly from one construction site to another.
The ANTICO industrial range specifically addresses issues related to :
- corrosion protection of metals ;
- preparation and protection of metal structures ;
- definition of industrial equipment ;
- resistance to aggressive environments ;
- protection against high temperatures ;
- renovation of existing metal supports ;
- protection and finishing of structures subjected to significant stresses.
Each product serves a specific function and can also be integrated into a complete painting system, with compatible primer, intermediate coat, and finish.

🛡️ Finishes tailored to industrial requirements
Among the proposed solutions, the finishing paints provide options for different levels of resistance and use.
🏟️ POLYSTRIA : a polyurethane finish for metal structures
POLYSTRIA v01 is a polyurethane paint specifically designed for metal structures and industrial environments. It offers good resistance in aggressive environments, excellent finish quality, and quick drying. It can be combined with suitable anti-corrosion primers, such as EPODUX PRIMER 61-134 v01. The POLYSTRIA range is also available in different finishes to meet the requirements of the job site.
🚜 PRESTOTRUCK : for industrial body type equipment and professional applications
PRESTROTRUCK is part of the finishing solutions offered in the ANTICO range for industrial applications. Its value lies particularly in the possibility of integrating it into different protection systems for metal substrates, depending on the preparation of the substrate and the level of protection required.
🏗️ FERROTHANE : a polyurethane anti-corrosion protection
FERROTHANE is intended for applications requiring enhanced corrosion protection on metal substrates. It can be combined with various primers and epoxy systems before applying a suitable finish. The Maestria technical documents specifically indicate its compatibility with EPODUX PRIMER 61-134 v01, PRIMODUX H, ANTIROUILLE 55-17, and several other systems.
🚒 THERMOBLACK : for supports subjected to high temperatures
Some industrial installations require special protection due to operating temperature. THERMOBLACK meets this type of need with a paint specifically designed for steel substrates exposed to high temperatures, such as furnaces, chimneys, or piping. The choice of a high-temperature paint must always take into account the actual conditions of use of the substrate.
🔩 The primers : an essential step in corrosion protection
A high-performance finish cannot compensate for poorly adapted preparation or protection systems. The choice of primer depends particularly on :
- of the nature of the metal ;
- of the state of the support ;
- of the possible presence of old coatings ;
- of the exhibition environment ;
- of the desired level of protection ;
- of the finish that will be applied afterwards.
The ANTICO range offers various solutions for building a system tailored to the construction site.
⚙️ EPODUX PRIMER 61-134 v01
EPODUX PRIMER 61-134 v01 is a bi-component epoxy anticorrosion primer designed primarily for steel, galvanized steel, and aluminum. Its zinc phosphate formulation allows it to be integrated into anticorrosion protection systems for various professional environments. The product is notably certified by ACQPA and has EDF/RTE references. It can also be used under different finishes from the ANTICO range, including POLYSTRIA and FERROTHANE, depending on the chosen system.
🧰 PRIMODUX H
PRIMODUX H also constitutes a primary solution intended for industrial anti-corrosion systems. As with any professional system, the choice of primer must be made based on the substrate, the environment, and the intended finish. The Maestria technical documents specifically list PRIMODUX H among the layers compatible with certain epoxy and polyurethane systems.
🧲 ANTIROUILLE 55-17
For certain applications on ferrous metals, ANTIROUILLE 55-17 is a corrosion-resistant primer solution intended for professionals. Its quick drying time and good adhesion make it suitable for various protection and renovation tasks of metal structures.
🗜️ FERROMINE
FERROMINE is an anti-corrosion primer intended primarily for ferrous structures such as frameworks, piping, guardrails, or metalwork elements. It helps to prepare the substrate before applying a finish suitable for the chosen system.

⛓️ A much broader ANTICO industrial range...
The products presented here are only a selection from the range. Industrial needs can be very specific: protection of pylons, enhanced anti-corrosion systems, renovation of existing supports, equipment exposed to particular atmospheres, specific paints, or additional products necessary for implementation.
The ANTICO range thus includes numerous solutions that allow for the construction of a system adapted to the constraints of the site.
🔎 For each construction site, its painting system
In the industrial field, the final result rarely depends on a single product. A painting system can include : Surface preparation → anti-corrosion primer → intermediate coat → finish
The choice of each layer must take into account its compatibility with other products and the constraints to which the coating will be subjected. The Maestria technical data sheets specify the possible combinations between the different layers. For example, some epoxy systems can receive finishes such as POLYSTRIA, FERROTHANE, or PRESTOTRUCK. It is this system-based approach to protection that allows for precise responses to the requirements of a professional job site.
🎯 A solution for every professional need
There is no single "best industrial paint." A paint suitable for a metal structure exposed to the elements will not necessarily meet the same needs as a paint intended for piping subjected to high temperatures or a coating for heavily used industrial equipment. This is why the ANTICO range offers products that address different issues. :
- anticorrosion ;
- protection of metal structures ;
- polyurethane finishes ;
- high temperature protection ;
- renovation of existing supports ;
- specific industrial systems ;
- applications on metal equipment and structures.
🏁 In summary
👉 For every professional need, its solution.
🤝 A product choice suitable for the construction site
The choice of an industrial paint must take into account several parameters: substrate, preparation, environment, exposure, temperature, mechanical constraints, desired finish, and compatibility between the different layers. With an ANTICO range covering numerous industrial issues, professionals can seek the solution that truly corresponds to their project, rather than limiting themselves to a single product.

❓ FAQ - ANTICO Industrial Paint
Which paint to choose to protect a metal structure ?
The choice depends notably on the nature of the metal, its condition, the exposure environment, and the level of protection sought. A corrosion protection system can combine a suitable primer with one or more topcoats.
Should a primer always be applied before industrial paint ?
Not systematically. It depends on the product, the substrate, and the intended system. When a primer is necessary, its choice must be compatible with the finish and suitable for the nature of the substrate.
What is the difference between epoxy paint and polyurethane paint?
The two technologies address different needs. Epoxy systems are particularly used for their adhesion and protective properties, while polyurethanes are frequently used as topcoats for their performance and aesthetic quality. The choice depends on the overall system and the constraints of the job site.
What paint to use on metal exposed to high temperatures ?
For a substrate exposed to high temperatures, it is necessary to use a paint specifically formulated for this constraint. THERMOBLACK is particularly intended for applications on steel subjected to high temperatures.
How to choose an appropriate ANTICO paint for my project ?
It is necessary to start by identifying the substrate, its condition, its exposure environment, the constraints it will be subjected to, and the desired outcome. These elements then allow for the determination of the most suitable primer, finish, and system.
