AIS provides winterisation protection for cold facilities across a multitude of industries year after year. With decades of experience and a proven track record in keeping facilities safe and operational, our ContraFlex® removable jackets are the ideal solution for protecting your process pipework and equipment.
Why insulate your facility?
Leaving process equipment such as pipes, flanges, valves, and machinery exposed over the winter could lead to frost and ice build-up. This can lead to the loss of flow assurance, and/or the formation of wax and crystallisation in the pipeline.
As a result, valves and other moving parts may cease to work, or monitors may provide you with incorrect readings. Aside from reduced functionality, this could permanently damage the pipes, resulting in an expensive replacement as well as business downtime. This risk becomes even more pertinent for pipes that are small, outdoors, or in colder climates.
Why ContraFlex®?
ContraFlex® removable jackets are the perfect winterisation protection for cold facilities, ensuring that your equipment continues to run during colder months and preventing expensive repairs. With facilities in the United Kingdom, Canada, Kazakhstan, Brazil, and Dubai, our jackets and blankets can be provided no matter the location. Tried and tested in extreme weather conditions and made to a bespoke fit for the following benefits:
- Self-regulating trace heating cables can be incorporated into jackets and blankets to ensure a precise operating temperature is conserved
