# ICRALA: Induction Coating Removal & Laser Ablation

ICRALA is a patent-protected process that unites induction coating removal with laser ablation for precise, eco-friendly remediation. Over 35 years in the field, more than 1,000 projects handled and over 500 projects completed across commercial, industrial, government and military work.

## What ICRALA Does

ICRALA provides a patented process, control methodology and field know-how for targeted coating removal and surface conditioning on critical infrastructure. Induction heating releases the coating from the substrate, and high-precision laser ablation finishes the surface preparation. The result is lower waste, less rework and higher compliance, without broad demolition or full containment in many scenarios.

## Applications

- Bridges and overpasses - lead paint and coating removal on steel structures without full containment.
- Historic preservation - precise removal that protects the underlying substrate and original material.
- Maritime and naval vessels - hull and deck surface preparation, including U.S. Navy studies of laser ablation for ship surface prep.
- Pipelines and storage tanks - coating removal and surface conditioning for inspection and recoating.
- Industrial and nuclear facilities - targeted remediation where precision, containment and safety are critical.

## The Technology

- Laser ablation technology - advanced laser systems for superior coating and contaminate removal.
- Induction coating removal - heat-based release of bonded coatings from metal substrates.
- Safety and monitoring systems - point-source fume extraction, HEPA filtration and strict compliance practices integrated into field operations.
- Specialized equipment - professional-grade tooling for coating removal and surface preparation.

## Why It Matters

- Precision and efficiency - treat only the areas that need work, preserving structural integrity and saving time.
- Eco-friendly - dramatically less blast media, dust and hazardous waste than sandblasting.
- Cost-effective - reduced containment, disposal and downtime costs.
- Industry recognition - covered by AMPP Materials Performance and used on bridge, Navy hangar and nuclear plant projects.

## Credentials

- Licensed and certified crews trained in all aspects of coating removal and surface preparation.
- HAZWOPER (Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response) certified staff.
- Experience spanning Fortune 500 construction companies through to government agencies.
- Over 35 years of successful projects in commercial, industrial, government and military applications.
