Project Details
A substantial contract completed by coating contractors E & P Coatings of Ellesmere Port was to protect pipework destined to carry river water as a coolant with Densoclad 70™ Tape.
The work was carried out for Laker Vent Engineering who are installing the protected pipework above ground at Acordis Acetates in Derby.
All pipework was first grit blasted by E & P Coatings to the Swedish Standard Sa 2 1⁄2 and then coated Denso Primer D™. This was then followed by a double wrap application of Densoclad 70 Tape. Densoclad 70 Tape is based on a polymer modified bitumen adhesive laminated to a robust PVC backing tape, which also makes it particularly suitable for rolling rig applications when required.
