Our Services

Core Industrial Services
RSC Industrial Services, originally focused on corrosion protection, has naturally expanded its range of offerings by leveraging its core capabilities and brand expertise.
Scaffolding and rope access were initially integrated to support corrosion protection projects. Over time, additional services such as acid lining, tank lining, insulation, cladding, sheeting, denso pipe wrapping, thermal spray aluminium, rubber lining, fire intumescent, concrete rehabilitation, ceramic lining and conveyor belt splicing were added. These services utilise our internal core engineering expertise and asset base. The surface preparation and application for corrosion protection also led to the inclusion of various blasting methodologies and ultra-high pressure (UHP) cleaning among our core services.
This evolution has resulted in a specialised site maintenance offering by RSC, aimed at extending the life of structural assets in remote and harsh environments. We provide comprehensive site maintenance industrial services through a single provider, ensuring minimal risk and reduced capital expenditure.
RSC proudly boasts unsurpassed expertise in all the services listed below.

Abrasive Blasting
RSC’s Head Office features the largest blasting yard in Southern Africa, processing a significant portion of all steel fabricated for the continent. Surface preparation is crucial in the corrosion protection process, serving as the foundation upon which effective coating systems are built.

Corrosion Protection
Our industrial Corrosion Protection services encompass specification, surface preparation, application, and expert recommendations on industrial coatings and surface treatments.
These services are tailored to address the rigorous conditions found in process engineering applications.
- High Pressure surface preparation & cleaning
- Abrasive Blasting
- Ultra-high-water blasting (UHP)
- Application of Industrial Ceramic Lining
- Plant surveys

Tank Linings
RSC Specialises in tank linings for numerous industries including mining, commercial storage, petrochemical and oil and gas. The group has provided internal and external protection to hundreds of vessels across the continent, depending on your specific product make up and handling requirements, we will develop a cost-effective solution for storing your bulk products from diesel to 98% hydrochloric acid whilst extending the life of your asset.

Scaffolding
Recognizing the growing need for enhanced accessibility, scaffold provision naturally evolved as a service extension for the RSC Group. As maintenance and project demands in petrochemical and power-generation industries continued to rise, scaffolding has become integral to RSC Group’s offerings. We specialize in delivering superior access solutions to our clients, thereby enhancing safety and productivity for their personnel and subcontractors onsite. Additionally, the RSC Group proudly maintains membership with the Institute for Working at Heights ‘IWH’

Hot, Cold & Acoustic Insulation
RSC offers the supply and application of insulation (thermal & acoustic) and cladding systems with a temperature range of -200°C to +600°C.
Every insulation system is tailored to identify the optimal insulation solution for the anticipated conditions. Leveraging our insulation expertise, we assist clients in achieving peak efficiency while simultaneously minimizing risks and costly maintenance.

Denso Wrapping
RSC is able to supply and install a high-performance range of denso mastics and tape wrap systems suitable for pipelines, fittings and valves to extend the life our your assets. Offering a wide range of applications of anti-corrosion protection systems to steelwork, tanks and plant.

Secondary Containment and Acid Lining
RSC specialises in the Design, Supply and Application of Acid Proof Linings.
Typically utilised for acid tanks, CIL areas and bund containment areas, RSC can provide the most robust systems capable or withstanding the corrosive elements and thermal shock effects associated with the most aggressive acids.

Concrete Rehabilitation
Concrete corrosion is grossly underestimated and often unplanned for as a maintenance activity, however, it is precisely this infrastructure that is compromised by corrosion elements, such as oxidization, chemicals, wear and tear, and other corrosive elements. Corrosion protection is vital not only for steel structures but also for concrete within industrial settings. RSC has developed the expertise to rehabilitate corroded concrete structures using advanced rehabilitative products, and where necessary, executing new builds. Within this division, numerous highly innovative products have become available to completely arrest corrosion and thus extend life of mine considerably.

Industrial Sheeting
RSC excels in the supply and installation of industrial sheeting for various industries. Our specialised sheeting crews can work from scaffolding or utilise rope access technicians, maintaining a strict safety record and ensuring low risk on all projects.

Fire Protection
RSC is certified in the application of fireproofing materials, including intumescent coatings, void/penetration sealants, and fire-stopping materials for cable racks. Our passive fire protection services enhance the safety and resilience of industrial structures.

Rope Access
RSC provides advanced rope access technicians to reach areas that are inaccessible by scaffolding or other methods, ensuring that maintenance and inspections are performed safely and effectively.

Pigging
RSC provides comprehensive pipe pigging services for inspection, desludging, and maintenance. Pigging minimises the environmental impact of cleaning operations, reduces product loss, and eliminates the need for line flushing. It allows for product separation, internal pipe cleaning, inline inspection, and the capture of geometric data.

Materials:
- Flat tiles of various dimensions and thicknesses
- Pre-engineered pipe tiles
- Interlocking tiles
- Other specialized ceramic products
- Monolithic and sets
- Pre-engineered inserts and sets
- HDPE and UHMWPE liners cut to size and fitment on site or in their workshop
Applications:
- Mills
- Piping
- Fans
- Coal chutes
- Hoppers
- Cyclones
- Feeders
- Other high-wear environments
- Custom Solutions:
RSC provides bespoke solutions tailored to address specific wear lining challenges.
Designs are aimed at minimizing downtime and facilitating the rapid deployment of new lining solutions as required.

Conveyer Splicing Services
RSC have invested in training of conveyor belt splicing teams in order to offer splicing in our facilities as well as on your site. We are proficient in the splicing of various types of conveyor belt. Our experience will allow us to provide you with splicing services quickly and effectively.

UHP Cleaning
Widely accepted as an environmentally sound alternative to abrasive blasting. RSC has the expertise and equipment available to perform HP & UHP Water Jetting operating at pressures ranging between 68bar and 2800 bar.

The RSC Yard
RSC proudly operates the largest corrosion protection facility in Africa, with a 142,000m² operational area and 6,000m² of undercover facilities. Our resources include 12 tower cranes, 4 mobi lift cranes, and a 50-ton mobile crane, supporting a throughput to 2,000 tons of steel per month. Our facility is equipped with one rotating boom and two internal pipe booms for piping applications. The rubber lining plant features two autoclaves and a dedicated undercover processing facility capable of handling 100 rolls and producing 2,000m² per month.
