Research and Development
Our passion for finding new solutions to the challenges posed by our customers and competitors, lead us to search for new ways to design and build more efficient and resilient structures.
We work with different materials, as shown below:
Thermostable plastics
Fiberglass reinforced polyester (FRP), using vinyl ester, bisphenolic, isophthalic, orthophtalic, and terephthalic resins.
Thermoplastics
PVC, CPVC, PP, PE, PVDF, FEP, PFA and ECTFE
Dual laminates
Internal lining of thermoplastic + FRP outside
Lead coated steel (dropped lead coating)
FRP coated concrete
FRP
