How Long Does Pipe Coating Last?
Pipe coating can add to the upfront cost of your project’s procurement, engineering, and installation process, but delivers value down the line in the form of lower maintenance costs, improved flows, and other efficiencies. It’s important to understand how long your pipe coating is expected to last to calculate the expected return on your investment […]
What You Need to Know About Industrial Pipe Coating
Sometimes short-term gains can lead to long-term pain. Relying on unprotected bare metal pipes for your industrial process or transfer project can save you money at installation time, but may end up costing you more in maintenance and repairs down the line. Unprotected pipes are susceptible to corrosion, abrasion, flow inefficiencies, and even catastrophic failure. […]

6 Problems With Industrial Insulation
Insulation reduces the rate at which heat flows from hot to cold. In industrial environments, it reduces energy costs, enables more precise process control, and helps keep workers and others close by from harm. If the insulation is defective, it won’t perform these functions to the level required, which can mean unexpected shutdowns and repair […]
