Oil and gas

Our customised formulations have applications across the whole energy supply chain and can help meet rapidly changing industry needs. These include pipeline support gaskets, thermal insulation, seals and vibration isolation.

With its inert properties and resistance to UV and ozone, silicone can help increase the lifespan of oil and gas pipelines and reduce the risk of failure. Silicone’s ability to withstand a wide range of temperatures also make it an ideal solution for extremely diverse climatic conditions.
