This entrepreneur is revolutionising the business of protecting vehicles to industrial machinery from corrosion

From vehicles to industrial machinery, everything metallic corrodes with time. Keong Chun Chieh’s IGL Coatings is fighting back against that corrosion, with safe, eco-friendly coatings that make the surfaces they’re applied to far tougher, reducing both maintenance cycles and carbon emissions. Based on graphene and minimising the use of volatile organic compounds, they’re being applied in the automotive, industrial, marine and aviation industries in more than 50 countries.
