PPA 571 for Lampposts - La Réunion

The tiny island of La Réunion in the Southern Indian Ocean, just south of Madagascar is a surfer's paradise. However the severe tropical climate means that street furniture, particularly at the sea front, needs a world-class coating to protect it from severe conditions

The fishing village of St. Leu known as "Surf Mecca" is home to one of the most famous waves in the world and hosts many surfing competitions including the famous "Rip Curl" World Cup which took place there in 1999.

As preparation for this world-class event, the sea front at St. Leu was refurbished. This included coating the lampposts and flag masts with Plascoat PPA 571. The esplanade was made immaculate and the coating is still pristine today.

A spokesman said - "La Réunion suffers from very harsh conditions, high humidity, intense UV and devastating cyclones. This means that coatings have to be highly protective and extremely long lasting. PPA 571 has proved that over the last three years it has stood all of these elements and we are confident that it will last for many years to come"..
