SYLMASTA
Industry-leading products developed and manufactured in the UK
Pipes are everywhere . We rely on them in our factories , our businesses , our homes . When they start leaking or suffer a burst , the consequences can be severe in terms of the potential damage water can cause and the costs incurred through loss of earnings and hiring contractors to repair or replace systems .
Which is where Sylmasta come in . Sylmasta use resin technology to develop repair and maintenance products – including Pipe Repair Kits , which enable a user to permanently fix a leaking pipe inside of 30 minutes without the need for any formal training .
Expensive shutdowns and replacements of systems are no longer necessary . Simply use the contents of a SylWrap Kit and you can carry out repairs on live leaks which are pressure resistant up to 30bar , temperature resistant up to 250 ° C , and WRAS approved , so safe to use on drinking water .
Repairs are made in a simple , two-stage process which begins with sealing the leak using either Superfast Epoxy Putty or Wrap & Seal Pipe Burst Tape and then overwrapping with a resin-infused , water-activated SylWrap composite repair bandage .
SylWrap Kits can repair even the most challenging of leaks . When a furniture factory was told that the only solution for a pinhole leak in their sprinkler system was a full replacement at a cost of tens of thousands of pounds , a SylWrap Pipe Repair Kit instead fixed the problem in 24 hours .
The 8bar pipe in question was high in the factory roof , making access difficult to apply a clamp and it was located perilously close to the incoming electricity supply . It was little wonder no maintenance company could find a solution – until the furniture company turned to Sylmasta .
SylWrap Pipe Repair Kits have been used for pipe repair in factories , petrochemical plants , wastewater treatment plants , quarries , farms , nuclear power stations , freight ships , oil rigs , leisure centres , hotels , even breweries .
This versatility and ease of application means that companies worldwide turn to Sylmasta products whenever they need their pipework repaired , knowing that resin composite technology offers an alternative to costly replacements .
