Белзона Факты
Application took three days to be completed. The customer saved €30,000 of not buying new casings compared to only 10-15% for a Belzona repair. The customer wanted to try Belzona on these casings as they had previous experience in 2015. Two large centrifugal pumps were repaired and protected, when the pumps were opened for inspection after 9 months they were found to be in good condition.
