Our Customers
Our PTFE and PFA lined products are regularly supplied across numerous industries and sectors. While the primary use is to convey very corrosive substances, other properties of the products such as their high purity and non-stick characteristics mean they’re suitable for a wide range of applications. Here are some examples of how they’re used by our customers..
CRP supply equipment such as lined piping and valves to major pharmaceutical companies to aid the completion of pharmaceutical manufacturing plants. Our lined piping provides universal plant application, and is a common product in our large scale supply projects.
Petroleum is used to manufacture hundreds of different derivatives of petrochemicals, with the processes sometimes using highly corrosive and toxic additives. Our PTFE lined piping is used in these scenarios, to safely convey these products.
The manufacture of biodiesel is another process that uses highly corrosive chemicals, such as sodium hydroxide which is used as a catalyst. Our PTFE lined pipes and valves safely and successfully convey these chemicals, and have been used in the completion of several plants.
Highly corrosive materials are also used in crop science, specifically in the production of fungicides, biocides, insecticides and herbicides. CRP supply large quantities of PTFE lined piping and valves for the safe production of these products.
Manufacturing ink and toner for inkjet and laser printers is another complex process that requires highly corrosive chemicals. Our PTFE lined piping can safely convey these, and is a cost effective solution.
We provide our products to many large scale projects, most of which are managed by contractors and design houses. We work closely with these contractors to ensure costs are kept to a minimum, and offer many value-increasing, money-saving services to ensure the smooth running of projects.
CRP lined piping products are used in the facilities of many chemical manufacturers, who work with corrosive chemicals such as bromine, sulphuric acid and nitric acid. Their high levels of corrosiveness mean corrosion resistant piping is required for safe storage and handling, making PTFE lined piping a perfect solution.
Fine Chemical Manufacturers
The manufacturing of drugs requires chemical substances known as APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients). The production processes of these APIs will often use highly corrosive substances, with easily cleanable, FDA approved PTFE lined piping widely used to convey them.
As well as being corrosion resistant, PTFE lined pipe has effective non-stick properties. This enables it to solve process problems in food production, particularly with very viscous ingredients such as margarines.
Drinks Manufacturers
The production of soft drinks involves the use of acids including phosphoric, acidic, and ascorbic, while caustic solutions are also used to clean piping between production runs. As such, the stainless steel piping components used come into contact with very high concentrations of chemicals and can lead to premature corrosion. We supply PTFE lined components to replace the failing lines, and safely convey these chemicals.
Working with process plant manufacturers, CRP can help with the design and specification of components required for the manufacture of process skid units, process packages etc. We utilise PTFE and PFA lined products such as piping and valves, which are used around specialist components such as dryers, scrubbers, and filter assemblies.
Process industries have complex requirements, so it is natural that Corrosion Resistant Products (CRP) would be a leader in providing creative solutions. CRP is a reliable partner in this industry where longevity, precision, and resilience are critical. It provides a wide range of corrosion-resistant products that improve operational efficiency.
The alloys used in aircraft manufacture often require more aggressive forms of cleaning, which require the use of caustic and acidic solutions. Our PTFE lined pipes and valves help with the safe storage of these necessary cleaning fluids.
Chemicals such as chlorine and sodium hypochlorite are commonplace in water treatment plants, and while they’re significantly diluted with the water, the pure chemical is held within components that can be badly corroded. We supply our products, such as PTFE lined piping, to RO plants, marine applications, and many water treatment works.
Corrosion is a common occurrence at power stations that use fossil fuels. PTFE lined piping and valves can help to prevent the corrosion of equipment, which can occur when the steam and cooling water components require treatments.
Cleaning and Detergent Product Manufacturers
The manufacture of cleaning and detergent products can use highly corrosive and toxic chemicals, which can badly damage the polypropylene and other thermoplastic piping systems. Our PTFE lined piping is used to replace them, preventing the premature failure of them.
Flavour and Fragrance Enhancers
Some of the chemical reactions used to create the additives required in the manufacture of these specialist foodstuffs can cause corrosion problems. CRP’s lined piping and valves is supplied to these manufacturers to help them combat the problem.
Flowmeter Manufacturers
Fluoropolymers have effective insulating characteristics, as well as being corrosion resistant and non-stick. This is why CRP supply OEM fluoropolymer lining services to global scale flowmeter manufacturers, with their properties making them an ideal choice for this specialist market.
Plastics Manufacturers
The manufacture of plastics uses highly corrosive base chemicals, with the production of PVC for example requiring vinyl chloride, chloroethane and hydrogen chloride. As such, these industries have a widespread use of PTFE lined piping for the safe conveying of these corrosive and toxic substances.
What makes Corrosion Resistant Products (CRP) your ultimate industrial partner is the seamless integration of cutting-edge solutions designed to fortify and enhance industrial operations.
Tanker Manufacturers
CRP provides the Durco range of plug valves to tanker manufacturers, specified to be fitted to ISO road tankers thanks to an excellent bubble-tight shut off.
Precious Metal Refiners
Strong, corrosive acids are required to remove carbon steel materials from used catalytic convertors, to refine products such as platinum, palladium and rhodium. CRP provides lined piping and valves to these processors.
Paint Manufacturers
The production of paints involved biocides, which are used to prevent fungal growth within the products. These biocides can be quite corrosive, requiring PTFE lined piping and injection nozzles as part of these processes, which is supplied by CRP to paint manufacturers.
In the mining of precious metals, sulfuric acid is often used to remove impurities. We’ve supplied our PTFE lined piping and sampling systems to this sector.
