Project: Hydroelectric Plant Interior Painting
Project Overview
- CO₂ blasting removed existing coatings from steel surfaces more than 100 feet underground inside a hydroelectric plant.
- Crews followed stringent confined‑space and safety protocols, earning recognition in Coatings Pro magazine.
- The project showcased Alpine’s expertise in high‑risk industrial painting and blast cleaning.
Ben Scaturro Jr., of Alpine Painting, is featured in a very safety conscious effort to paint the inside of one of NJ’s Largest Hydroelectric Power Plants in the 2012 November issue of Coatings Pro Magazine. Learn the intensive safety requirements and involved confined spaces that Alpine’s crew overcame in order to successfully co2 blast and paint the steel surfaces of a pipe over 100 feet in the ground.
