Engineers at a nuclear facility had an interesting challenge. They wanted to adhere a new concrete roof on top of an existing concrete roof. Our technical specialists were called in to come up with an appropriate solution that would have enough adhesion. The solution included removing the top layer of insulation, preparing the concrete, and spraying ENECLAD SuperBond to an area that totaled ... Read More...

You know a client is happy when they give you additional work. In this case a major pharmaceutical plant had cooling towers that sat on grated platforms supported by I-beams. These I-beams had been affected by years of atmospheric pollution. After loose corrosion was removed ENESEAL CR was applied. ENESEAL CR is s corrosion protection ... Read More...

Severe cavitation is a tough problem and can cause serious damage. A hydroelectric plant called the ENECON solution the best method of repairing and protecting the Francis Turbine Runners. The engineer responsible for the unit was originally slightly skeptical but now is such a fan of the solution that he has recommended it to the operating supervisors from other dams.  Read More...

Neither rain, nor sleet, nor hail, nor floor problems can stop the mail when ENECON’s field engineer is on the case. A United States Post Office had repeatedly tried to repair the loading area floor but it never lasted long enough. The solution they ultimately found has now given them years of trouble-free performance in this highly used area. Read More...

When we think about protecting insulation on twin diesel engines we don’t always stop to consider that by protecting the system on the boats, we are ultimately protecting the passengers and crew that travel on them. The Panama Canal Commission recognized our ability to prevent damage from oil, water, and impact for their specialty launches that ferry pilots and personnel throughout ... Read More...
