Chemical & Petrochemical

NobelClad has a long history of creating custom, corrosion-resistant cladding for the equipment used in chemical processes, while addressing these complex processing challenges. Chemical and petrochemical processing facilities were among the first to rely on us for explosion-welded tantalum, zirconium and titanium.  

We provide a deep level of technical expertise, using the widest range of alloys and customized explosion welded cladding for columns, towers, reactors, heat exchanges, piping and tanks. By providing petrochemical-protective cladding and metal composites for chemical applications, the corrosive materials in our customers’ businesses ranging from Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) to Acetic Acid to Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) production are safely and reliably contained.
