FRP and Dual Laminates
Corrosive Applications
Troy Dualam® is a leader in the fabrication of corrosion resistant FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) and Dualam® (thermoplastic lined FRP) equipment. We offer a complete supply of Towers, Scrubbers, Tanks, Hoods, Piping, Duct and custom equipment. Manufactured to your specifications and delivered on me. No project is too small or too big.
Our FRP & Dualam® equipment service some of the most corrosive applications found in the following industries:
- Chlor-Alkali plants
- Bleach plants
- Chemical processing
- Metal & mineral refining
- Energy and Power
- Flue Gas Desulfurization (FDG)
- Pharmaceuticals
- High Purity Chemicals
- Water & Wastewater treatment
- Odor control
- Fertilizer plants
- FDA industry
- Petrochemical
- Other highly corrosive materials and harsh operating environments

Dual Laminates
A cost effective alternative to lined steel and expensive metal alloys. Several types of thermoplastics can be used in fabrication process including PVC, PP, CPVC, PVDF, ECTFE, ETFE and Teflon® FEP & PFA. A thermoset bonding layer provides mechanical or chemical bond and electrically conductive material allowing for spark testing or liner leak detection, a CPF Dualam® patented system.
Advantages
- Optimum resistance to corrosive chemicals
- Lightweight: Dual laminate pipe weighs approximately 75% less than lined steel
- Versatile: Dual laminate piping can be used in full vacuum, at higher temperatures than thermoplastic pipe
- Safe: FRP pipe will not externally corrode in industrial environments
- Reliable: Dual laminate pipe is not de-rated with temperature increase unlike thermoplastic pipe
- High purity materials for food & drugs industry.
