Application Date:

October 2011

Problem:

The ducting had been installed early 2011 and due to the nature of their process/products the pipe elbows had worn within a short period of time.

Belzona Facts:

Pipe elbows have been and continue to be protected with Belzona, increasing the working life of the system. As a result the customer has saved money on replacement costs and downtime.
