"Protect Your Investment—Hire a FROSIO."

Why it makes sense to hire a FROSIO coating inspector for your project

Hiring a FROSIO-certified coatings inspector isn't just a formality—it's a smart investment in the quality, safety, and longevity of your project. Here's why:

1. They know what they are doing

FROSIO certification isn't something you just get. Inspectors undergo intensive training and pass demanding exams on topics such as substrate preparation, coating application, corrosion protection, environmental conditions, standards, and more. When you hire a FROSIO inspector, you're getting a true expert—not someone who just pretends to know.

2. You avoid costly mistakes

Coating errors are expensive. Poor substrate preparation, incorrect materials, or improper application quickly lead to corrosion, structural damage, and high rework costs. A FROSIO inspector identifies problems early, holds contractors accountable, and ensures that the work meets standards.

3. You know the international standards

FROSIO inspectors are well-versed in international standards such as ISO, NORSOK, SSPC, and NACE. Whether offshore, in the maritime sector, or in heavy industry – they know what's required and ensure your project complies with standards.

4. They are independent and objective

A good inspector is not an agent of the contractor. A FROSIO-certified inspector works based on facts, according to standards, and with experience. This independence builds trust and lends credibility to the project.

5. You provide reliable documentation

Inspections are more than just a quick glance at the surface. They involve traceable documentation. FROSIO inspectors create detailed, structured reports that precisely record what was done, when, and how – crucial for complaints, warranty claims, or audits.

6. You improve communication within the team

A certified inspector speaks the language of engineers, contractors, and owners. They act as a liaison, help align expectations, clarify technical issues, and ensure smooth collaboration.

Conclusion:

If your project involves corrosion protection, coatings, or surface treatments, a FROSIO inspector isn't an additional cost—it's a quality factor. They reduce risks, improve results, and give you true peace of mind.
In short, he makes sure it gets done right the first time.
