Innovative Solutions for Safeguarding Industrial Installations in the Energy Sector
ENRI designs and applies technical coatings based on elastomers to protect heavily used industrial equipment. In the energy sector—where chemical, thermal, and mechanical stresses are particularly high—our custom solutions enhance the durability of installations, optimize performance, and reduce maintenance operations.
The Importance of Industrial Coatings in the Energy Sector
Protecting Equipment from Corrosion and Wear
Energy environments expose equipment to extreme conditions: humidity, chemicals, high temperatures, abrasion, etc. Our coatings provide effective protection against chemical corrosion and premature wear. They extend the service life of key components such as pipelines, tanks, valves, cylinders, and transport rollers.
Enhancing Durability and Operational Efficiency
Our coating solutions—developed using high-performance elastomers (such as silicone, polyurethane, rubber, and composites)—are tailored to each application to offer optimal resistance. A well-adapted coating minimizes energy loss, improves safety, and ensures uninterrupted production, even under extreme conditions.
Types of Coatings Suited to the Energy Sector
Coatings Resistant to Chemical Corrosion
Thanks to our custom formulations, we ensure that surfaces withstand a wide range of corrosive agents present in nuclear, hydro, and petrochemical facilities. These coatings provide robust protection for metal surfaces and ensure sealing integrity.
Solutions for High-Temperature Environments
We work with materials capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, such as specific elastomers like silicone or fluorinated rubber. Our coatings are engineered for zones exposed to intense thermal variations, while maintaining mechanical performance.
Sustainable and Long-Lasting Coatings
The durability and resistance of our coatings help reduce the use of raw materials and replacement frequency, supporting a more sustainable approach.
Advanced Coating Processes and Technologies
Modern Techniques for Coating Application
Our processes include molding, hot-casting of rollers, bonding to metal, and advanced machining and surface treatment methods. All coatings are produced in our workshops in Normandy, with a high level of precision and quality control.
Economic and Environmental Benefits of Industrial Coatings
Reducing Maintenance and Operating Costs
By improving wear resistance, our coatings significantly decrease production downtime and maintenance operations. This leads to greater profitability and reduced lifecycle costs of industrial systems.
Supporting the Sustainable Energy Transition
By extending the life of equipment, our solutions promote more responsible resource management and support the sector’s transition toward more efficient and sustainable systems.
