Highland's HiTemp paint has long been the benchmark for Hot Mix Asphalt Plants and with good reason... it works! We have coatings for all of your HMA plant components from the cold feed bins to the drum! Industrial kilns, soil purification plants, and recycling facilities are a few other areas where Highland HiTemp coatings are used to protect industrial operations with elevated temperatures.

HiTemp paints are available for standard spray application or in High Performance Dry-Fall Spray formulas to eliminate paint over spray damage to cars or equipment nearby. It dries to a powder within 10-20 feet from point of application so the over spray wipes away clean without chemicals or buffing. It is 4 times faster than brush and roll application, thereby reducing labor costs and plant down time. Both formulas (Standard and Dry-Fall) are durable, and made for high temperature, harsh, and abrasive environments. HiTemp paint ensures excellent corrosive, abrasion, and high temperature protection.

HiTemp formulas are available in a range of temperatures and formulas including HiTemp Dry-Fall, HiTemp Direct to Metal Coatings, HiTemp Primers, and HiTemp Topcoats. For recommended products and downloadable product technical sheets, select one of the Coating Systems listed below.
