Our ongoing investment in R&D ensures we deliver textiles that combine maximum protection with fire resistance and high-temperature performance.

Mining

We create high-performance textiles for the mining sector, designed to withstand extreme heat, abrasion, and harsh environmental conditions. Our solutions include silicone-coated glass fabrics, needlemat insulation, and protective sleeves. These are each engineered to support engine efficiency and shield components from heat and wear. These materials also play a critical role in reducing fire risks in heavy-duty earthmoving equipment.

Molten Metal Processing

We manufacture heavy-duty vermiculite-treated glass fabrics specifically engineered for the molten metal processing sector, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures from 600°C up to over 1000°C. These textiles are designed to resist molten metal droplets and retain slag on the surface until cooled, providing reliable protection in intense heat environments.

With deep industry knowledge and flexible production capabilities, we supply precision fabrics that meet strict OEM specifications. This ensures consistency, performance, and confidence whether for original components or like-for-like replacements. 

Petrochemical

We construct specialised fabric solutions tailored to the demanding needs of the petrochemical sector. From high-performance welding fabrics for shutdowns and offshore repairs to heat-resistant, fire-retardant, and leak-detection materials. Our products are engineered to support safety, efficiency, and durability at every stage of the refining process.

Plastic and Rubber Industries

We supply specialised technical fabrics to the plastic and rubber industries, offering reinforcement, durability, and high-performance characteristics for a wide range of applications. 

We provide materials like Kevlar®, polyester, and nylon for use in conveyor belts, where strength is essential. For flexible hoses, gaskets, and seals, we offer glass fabrics coated with Hypalon, neoprene, or natural rubber, engineered to perform reliably in demanding industrial environments.

Refractory
