Services
Heat Shields
Our heat shields provide critical protection for engine components and exhaust systems. Designed to withstand extreme temperatures, these products safeguard sensitive equipment in automotive, industrial, and power generation applications. Backed by extensive materials science expertise, our solutions ensure operational safety while maintaining regulatory compliance for thermal management in demanding environments.
Thermal Insulation
Custom-engineered insulation solutions protect personnel and equipment from high-temperature hazards. We develop advanced padding systems for gas turbines, exhaust outlets, and industrial machinery. Our materials combine durability with optimal thermal resistance, meeting exacting specifications for fire safety and energy efficiency across multiple sectors including offshore oil and gas operations.
Ducting Systems
Specialist ducting solutions address noise reduction, hot/cold air transfer, and exhaust extraction requirements. Our systems utilise flexible aluminium and stainless steel constructions to maintain airflow integrity while minimising vibration transmission. Applications range from vehicle HVAC systems to industrial process ventilation in marine engineering environments.
Filtration Components
Advanced filtration media employing glass and synthetic fibres deliver efficient particulate removal and coalescence. Our products serve critical purification processes in industrial fluid systems, power generation equipment, and environmental protection applications. Custom designs accommodate specific pressure, temperature, and flow rate requirements for liquid and air purification tasks.
Vacuum Lifting Tubes
High-strength vacuum tubes enable safe single-operator handling of heavy loads up to 500kg. Engineered from proprietary composite materials, our lifting systems offer exceptional flexibility under vacuum pressure. Standardised dimensions ensure compatibility across major lifting equipment brands while maintaining optimal durability in repetitive industrial handling operations.
