Pipe & Equipment Insulation
Our comprehensive pipe insulation solutions protect against extreme temperatures in Northern Alberta's climate. We install systems that prevent heat loss, reduce maintenance costs, and extend equipment lifespan. Our materials maintain operational temperatures while ensuring personnel safety and noise reduction for industrial operations.
Asbestos Removal
We provide complete asbestos management services for materials installed before 1985 in oilfield equipment. Our certified professionals perform glove bag removals, full enclosure abatement, and non-removal maintenance. We offer testing, analysis, and compliance documentation for all asbestos-related projects.
Tracer Wrap Systems
Specialized tracer wrap applications protect instrumentation and electrical lines in high-temperature environments. Our system installs quickly without special tools, maintains weather resistance, and retains flexibility across temperature extremes. Ideal for glycol tubing and critical process lines.
Utilidoor Panels
Lightweight, high-strength utilidoor panels create custom enclosures for industrial equipment and piping. Our solutions offer superior thermal efficiency, weather resistance, and easy assembly for temporary or permanent installations in challenging environments.
Inspection Ports
Non-invasive inspection ports allow safe, tool-free access to piping systems without removing insulation. Installed on aluminum cladding, these ports enable corrosion monitoring and maintenance checks while maintaining thermal protection integrity for industrial equipment.
