Farwest Corrosion Control Celebrates 67 Years of Operations

Farwest Corrosion Control Company (Downey, California, USA), a leading provider of cathodic protection (CP) and corrosion control products, installation, and engineering services worldwide, is currently celebrating 67 years of industry service. 

The company describes itself as an industry pioneer and leader in CP and corrosion-control solutions for the gas, oil, water, wastewater, power, marine, and construction industries. 

“We are proud of our history, reputation, and the many customers we have served over the years,” says Troy Rankin, president of the company. “From humble beginnings, we now have eight U.S. locations and have expanded to provide products and services worldwide. We have the largest U.S. inventory of cathodic protection and corrosion control products, provide custom fabrication solutions, and offer engineering and installation services.”

CP solutions mitigate corrosion and extend the life of underground and underwater critical assets including pipelines, storage systems, offshore structures, and other submerged metallic structures susceptible to corrosion. 

“Our team members are experienced professionals who focus on customer needs while ensuring our promise of integrity, service, and quality,” Rankin says. “When a challenge is presented to us, we find a way to say yes… to provide the high level of service our customers have come to expect from Farwest.”

Recent U.S. projects by the company include customized anode sleds for a port project in Alaska; deep anode well systems in Southern California; and AC (alternating current) mitigation systems in the Southwestern region. The firm also develops unique products like its DCPro Power Supply, Ref-Check VPR, and the Rapid-Check Test Station to address customer needs and challenges.
