TerraShield Protects Critical Aircraft Maintenance Facility at Naval Station Norfolk

Case study highlights

  • Advanced vapor barrier provides long-term protection for Navy’s new corrosion control and paint hangar
  • TerraShield was chosen for its proven chemical resistance, high durability, ease of installation, and ability to meet rigorous military construction standards.

The U.S. Navy planned the construction of a new Corrosion Control and Paint Facility (Building P-1035) at Naval Station Norfolk in Virginia. The facility, strategically located in the heart of the naval base, provides critical maintenance capabilities for MH-60R/MH-60S and V-22 aircraft. The single-story hangar includes three specialized bays—a plastic media blasting bay, a painting bay, and a wash rack bay—supported by mission-essential spaces. Due to potential vapor intrusion concerns associated with historic Navy maintenance activities and known contaminants in the area, the project team proactively selected Land Science’s TerraShield® Metallized Contaminant Vapor Barrier.
