NACE International (National Association of Corrosion Engineers)

NACE International, now known as the Association for Materials Protection and Performance, is a global organization dedicated to preventing and controlling corrosion—that is, the deterioration of materials, especially metals, caused by environmental exposure. They develop standards, provide training, and certify professionals to ensure that infrastructure such as pipelines, bridges, and tanks remain safe, durable, and efficient. By sharing knowledge and best practices, NACE helps industries reduce costs, extend equipment lifespan, and protect the environment from corrosion-related failures. It serves engineers, technicians, and organizations involved in safeguarding critical infrastructure against corrosion-related damage.
