Services
Reactor Vessels
Langfields designs and manufactures reactor vessels for high-demand industries, adhering to ASME and PD5500 standards. These vessels feature agitation systems, thermal insulation, and polished internal finishes. Clients benefit from compliance with nuclear and chemical sector requirements, ensuring safety and durability in extreme conditions.
Process Skids
Our process skids are engineered for precision, integrating pipework, steelwork, and instrumentation. Constructed from stainless and carbon steels, they meet exacting client specifications. Modular design reduces on-site disruption, offering cost-effective, scalable solutions for energy and pharmaceutical sectors.
Heat Exchangers
Langfields produces shell-and-tube heat exchangers compliant with TEMA standards. Utilising FEA for complex configurations, we ensure optimal thermal efficiency. These systems serve industries requiring reliable heat transfer, supported by in-house design and global code compliance.
Containerised Solutions
Our containerised modules are built to DNV standards, offering offshore and onshore storage solutions. Constructed in carbon and stainless steel, they reduce site assembly time. Clients gain secure, scalable systems for energy and industrial applications.
Pipework Systems
We design and fabricate process pipework compliant with PED and ASME B31.3. Using automated welding and corrosion-resistant materials, our systems ensure leak-free performance. Clients receive full documentation, from P&IDs to material certifications, for seamless integration.
