Boutique Canlon | Strengthening the Coastal Safety Line! TMP® Integrated Panels Protect the Roofs of Five Stations on the Guangdong-Hainan Railway

Remember when Super Typhoon Yagi made landfall in Wenchang, Hainan and Xuwen, Guangdong with winds exceeding Category 17? Many traditional metal roofs along the coast were torn off, corroded, and leaked, posing a severe challenge to transportation hubs. At that time, Canlon TMP® Integrated Roofing Panels proved their strength.

With its top-notch wind uplift resistance and long-lasting corrosion resistance, TMP integrated panels withstood wind damage during the roof renovation projects of five major stations on the Guangdong-Hainan Railway: Wanning Hele Station, Xuwen Station, Beigang Station, Wenchang Station, and Haikou East Station. The practical results proved the benchmark solution of "no roof lifting, no corrosion, and no leakage"!

The stations along the Guangdong-Hainan Railway are located in a tropical monsoon maritime climate zone, characterized by high temperatures, high humidity, and high salt spray year-round, as well as frequent typhoons. This places extreme demands on the roofing system's resistance to wind uplift, corrosion, and leakage. After Typhoon Yagi passed through, the steel roof panels of Xuwen Station and Beigang Station were blown off by the strong winds, while the panels of Wenchang Station and Hele Station suffered from severe aging, corrosion, and leakage. Traditional metal roofing is no match for extreme weather conditions, seriously affecting railway operations and passenger safety.

To quickly restore the hub's functions and build a long-term protective barrier, the project team selected the Canlon TMP® integrated panel system for a complete renovation and upgrade. This product was specially developed for coastal environments with high wind pressure, high corrosion, and high humidity. Its core advantages are super wind uplift resistance and full-cycle physical corrosion protection, directly addressing the three fatal pain points of traditional roofs: wind-uplift, rust, and leakage.

Now, nearly two years after the renovation of the five sites, TMP integrated panels have proven their superior performance in typhoon and high-salt, high-humidity environments:

Wanning Hele Station (only 7 kilometers from the coastline): No leakage, no deformation, no rust, and meets both wind resistance and corrosion prevention standards;

Xuwen Station + Beigang Station: The integrated panels were intact after reconstruction, forming a solid protective pillar for the Qiongzhou Strait railway hub;

Wenchang Station (surrounded by the sea on three sides): Equipped with a gutter sealing system to effectively resist typhoons and salt spray corrosion;

Haikou East Station: Adapted to streamlined design, balancing safety and aesthetics, safeguarding the core hub of the island's ring railway.

The completion of the entire five stations of the Guangdong-Hainan Railway breaks through the industry's problems of "floor roofs inevitably leaking, being damaged by typhoons, and rusting from salt spray," setting a benchmark for both wind resistance and corrosion prevention in coastal transportation hubs!
